Hey! Thanks to the whole Reddit mess, I’ve discovered the fediverse and its increidible wonders and I’m lovin’ it :D
I’ve seen another post about karma, and after reading the comments, I can see there is a strong opinion against it (which I do share). I’d love to hear your opinions, what other method/s would you guys implement? If any ofc
I do like the community badges. And honestly, I would be ok if “karma” was how many “gold” awards a user received, at least there would be some monetary rate limit there to prevent bots from gaming the karma system. Also Lemmy communities would benefit and it would help pay for server costs.
I agree that it would have to have lots of rules and limits to discourage bots/farming.
Having it help fund the servers is an excellent idea, fully community-driven.
