You can’t leverage reddit karma for anything so probably not. It’s more like weight values for a neural network, now that reddit is just a data library for chatbots
No, those are just usless internet points.
I can’t think of a time I ever looked up someone’s account karma. Maybe there was a time or two I noticed it was discordant with their level of activity.
Karma on a post takes up some of the role nonverbal signals have IRL, and Lemmy separating out up and downvotes is an improvement.
I am not sure what you mean by social credit. Now with that said, I have never considered any posters karma score on reddit.
I feel it’s the equivalent of spending way too much time on reddit
I don’t see ppl judgin other by they karma lvl
Definitely by the karma on the comment/post, but not karma on the account.
That is obvious. I’m dumb lol
Only in that having a certain threshold is used to determine if an account is a bot or not.
“Credit” implies something you can borrow against—I’m not sure what that would mean in the context of social media.
If I see someone with a lot of karma on Reddit, all I think is “wow, they must spend a lot of time on Reddit”
