minus-squaremtchristo@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up13arrow-down3·12 hours agoThere are no virtual points to earn on Lemmy. So hopefully it will resist the enshitification for while.
minus-squareweeeeum@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4arrow-down1·5 hours agoI still dont see why people care about reddit karma. Its just a number?
minus-squareAnarki_@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up7·3 hours agoAccount age and karma makes an account look more legit and it’s thus more useful for spreading misinformation and/or guerilla marketing.
minus-squareIrelephant@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·4 hours agoSame reason why people play cookie clicker, watch the useless number go up. Also, some subs are downright hostile to people with low karma.
minus-squaremtchristo@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·4 hours agoSome subreddits require a minimum karma score for posting. And it gets less likely to get shadow banned the more karma you have.
minus-squareweeeeum@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·4 hours agoOhhh right. I remember subs had that bullshit. I didnt know about the shadowban thing though.
