Thank fuck. Those stupid internet points were a weird pissing contest anyway
Yeah making discussions into addictions, not because of the subject, but because of the good boy points was always stupid.
God I hated all the joke comments that wound up at the top with thousands of upvotes. Just one big circle jerk on many serious topics. I’m sure it’ll still occur in Lemmy to some extent but hopefully the lack of karma will help keep it down.
I’m going to upvote you just so you can live with being what you despise.
I downvoted to counteract you.
If there’s no karma, then what are the two numbers that “Thunder” displays next to my account age?
I’ve got the same with Memmy. I think these apps just add your upvotes and downvotes together to give you a score. Reddit, on the other hand, had a complex karma system, where the more upvotes/downvotes your post would get, the less those would be worth, so you couldn’t just get a massive karma score from just a couple popular posts
I had a post hit the top of r/all with 41k upvotes but it never got added to my post karma. I never cared enough to try to find out, but I always kind of wondered. It was a great post. 😂
You should post it over on Lemmy if you haven’t! We could always use more content here
Yeah, and didn’t early upvotes count more than later ones?
Yeah I think so
Is thunder a Lemmy browser?
Yes, but it’s only available via GitHub which means you gotta update it manually… No PlayStore or F-Droid atm afaik
If Android wasn’t whack it would be a very simple script to update it automatically from the GitHub, compiled from source.
Yeah :')
There is a score kept in the backend, it just has no frontend in default lemmy and only exists if instance devs want to do something custom with it. Some apps are probably using it.
Yep, The Memmy IOS app has a lot of details on the profile page
This is why I don’t use thunder.
It also made participating in smaller subreddits a little less satisfying, even though I liked the conversations in those more.
There was just something about a random comment in a giant subreddit suddenly getting me sooo many points, more than I had made in months!
Logically I knew karma didn’t really matter, but big numbers gud!
I agree with your text I’m going to give you some good boy points
Good boy points for all of you!
It’s good to see people complaining about good boy points still get good boyed here.
Somethings never change
But how am I supposed to buy tendies now without my gbp?
Give me all your updoots

I feel like I’m 13 again trying to figure out reddit, lol.
Was able to do it once, can do it again…
We’ll all get there together. It looks like the fediverse has some amazing potential, I’m excited to give this place all my views and interactions to build it into something cool.
I don’t know what’s going on here and at this point I’m to afraid to ask
Just remember, if you have a hot take , they don’t just ban you, they ban your entire server
Whaaaa that’s crazy I don’t understand. On the subject of things I don’t understand, is there a grand tally of our upvotes somewhere?
All your upvotes belong to us.
Oh it’s coming lol. They already track vote counts on the back end. Several third party apps even show total “point” for posts and comments.
Example from my profile on Memmy:
And Thunder
Interesting all the ones I use don’t.

We can’t stop it I guess… That’s the power of open source
You want to stop, having a sorting algorithm ?
Who says I can’t have Karma!? Maybe I’ll get good luck by getting a lot of updoots here on Lemmy, just like how it worked on Reddit! Right?
Hello World 👋
hey guys i am here too
For now
Muhahahhahaahha
Where are my customizable avatar??? WHEEEEREEEEE??? 😫
Tbh that was one my least favorite additions to Reddit
But when I see people upvoting my shitposts, it still gives me the happy monkey hormones. Isn’t that what it’s all about?
Is this where we establish ourselved as “landed gentry”?
Stake out your own homestead in this new land as pioneers. Manifest destiny.
As my application for lemmy.ml / lemmy.one are still pending , and i got rejected at beehaw.org, im making id at lemmy.world
Please accept us the reddit refugees
Maybe it’s just the apps I’ve use for it, but I still see points and upvote/downvote systems here. Am I missing something about all these “no karma” posts? Is it simply the lack of account points? Help me understand.
