Karma in lemmy? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

Hi guys just wanted to know if Lemmy has any karma count for people in their profile like Reddit has? If so is it public and How can I access it? Edit: Thanks guys I'm so relieved that this kind of stuff is not prevalent here. I love the Fediverse ❤️

If it is the same as for me it should be the sum of your posts and comments. What and how popular wouldn't matter, just each submission equals one point.

No that's not it. With the two upvotes I have on the post above that number is now shown as 4118.

Not sure what you mean with "if it is the same as for me", considering you're on Lemmy which doesn't have a feature like this.

But it being the sum of posts and comments is verifiably false. My instance knows of 6 posts and 809 comments of yours. Your home instance reports 17 posts and 2.27k comments. Either way, your karma is 8686, which isn't the sum of either of those.

I have a sum total displayed in my profile which works as I described, and assumed that is what everyone gets to see.

Huh, I assume that only appears while logged in then. Since I checked your profile on your home instance before writing that comment and didn't see anything (and still don't).

It does indeed seem to not be a thing even on all Lemmy instances, as my lemm.ee account (which runs the same version as lemmy.zip) doesn't have such a number displayed anywhere.

Thinking of it perhaps it is the client I use that does it, voyager. I have never not been using it ever since I joined lemmy so i often forget that i might have a different experience than other users.
