Against Lemmy Karma - eviltoast

There is already a total count of up- and downvotes, but please never add karma to Lemmy. We don’t want to deal with karma farmers and minimal karma requirements to post. I don’t care about the moderation issues because karma brought more harm than good. Please never add that bloody dreadful thing to Lemmy. I already saw a bunch of people supporting adding karma to Lemmy, which will turn Lemmy into a cheap Reddit clone and karma-farming hell. Please, never add karma to Lemmy. I beg you. No more karma hell.

    Have you ever thought that perhaps the reason that that there are so many bots posts on reddit is because of karma?

    What exactly makes account with high karma trustworthy when we all know it can be easily botted and then sold?
