sorry I meant “bring back Karma from reddit” , I am non native so I might have expressed bad
Rooki@lemmy.world 10 months ago
So to bring the sole reason, that users swapped from reddit to lemmy, back?
What a genious.

No need to be offensive.

Oh sorry if i am offensive with it. It was just my opinion. Everyone should of course do what they want on lemmy. And if anyone wants to add Karma back, they should. But what they should keep on reddit, is the attitude oh you have low karma = you bad or you are just not worth my time.

I guess you missed the whole
I could argue people (like me) swapped from reddit also because we were tired of the “if you disagree with me you are a stupid” attitude but I guess is universal
Cheers, just skip the post

Its not that i disagree but i see the risk that the karma will come back as hey you have low karma, you cant do sh*t. Or the whole thing with “Karma farming”. People posting more what everyone wants to hear and not whats right or interesting for some.

Reddit was using karma for a long time and people stayed. The exodus happened when reddit announced charging for using their API, and everything that came along. Karma was no significant part of that story.

I might be misunderstanding your sentence, but people swapped to Lemmy from Reddit because Reddit removed karma values? (because say “back”) I don’t think they ever removed it.
Rooki@lemmy.world 10 months ago
No, i meant it as that. Because of downsides of karma on reddit ( with restricting things to only over x ammount of karma ) many swapped from reddit. Because lemmy doesnt have it ( or rather shouldnt have it as pre 0.19 it was just an oversight ) i said “back” because i was referencing it to lemmy. I am not a native english speaker.
