I chose this username a couple of weeks ago so that in five years I will post something random on Lemmy and look back realizing I haven’t thought about Reddit in a while…

    I somehow amassed 14 years, and that was only because I couldn’t remember the password to my earlier account. 150 karma. I just lurked for the majority of that time, only commenting after getting a belly full and then refusing to review comment.

    Is 150 karma indicative of something? I never bothered to understand how karma worked.

      Karma was used in a some subs to determine if you’re an active user and allowed to post.

      It could also been seen as that your comments/posts are seen as valuable to the community (low/no karma = bad bot, spammer, troll etc)

      Other than that… useless internet points
