Lemmy’s design is focused on quality content by ditching the Karma farmers and addicts. No more chasing upvotes—people here actually focus on real value instead of feeding the ego.
EDIT: I know there are upvotes and downvotes, but the problem with Reddit is you can’t post in most communities if your karma or reputation is bad. This is a big problem because herd mentality prevails there and if ypu have unpopular opinions you’re basically censored.
Lemmy isn’t designed to milk ypur dopamine with notifications every 10 upvotes, so you focus more on posting valuable cont instead of farming for approval and upvotes.
…what do you think “karma” is?

Read the title.
Read whatever you want, but read ಠ╭╮ಠ
I read all of it. The title says “no karma”. We have “karma”. Which is why I’m questioning what you think karma is.
Ok this is my profile… Where is the karma count? What communities can’t I post in with a low karma?
Just because it’s not appearing on your profile or preventing you from posting doesn’t mean it’s not there.
And I actually agree with Reddit’s approach in that regard.
