Hey! Thanks to the whole Reddit mess, I’ve discovered the fediverse and its increidible wonders and I’m lovin’ it :D

I’ve seen another post about karma, and after reading the comments, I can see there is a strong opinion against it (which I do share). I’d love to hear your opinions, what other method/s would you guys implement? If any ofc

    Score the posts, not the individuals. Attaching imaginary points to any kind of activity instantly turns it into a competition.

    Instead, any scoring should focus on actual content, which is basically what the up/down vote is.

      I like this, and I also remember forums where you knew that that type was good but weird, that one was nice but not very good etc etc. You had to build your “real” reputation because it was an enouy small space.

      I hope Reddit will explode and create gazillions of normal sized subs…
