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

    No, we need people to have some accountability or everyone’s just gonna be intolerable.

      Federation already makes that completely impossible.

      I don’t agree with the lack of usernames of course. There’s no community when there is no way to associate posts with individuals.

        It’s not impossible. Each user is still tied to an instance, they still have usernames, etc.

          But an individual can be any user on any instance. Even one of their own creation.

      The problem is Lemmy already can’t allow that. Every user is Multiple Man. If you ban or block me on one instance I can just come back from another instance. What’s more, I can just keep creating more and more instances to evade blocking or banning infinitely.

      My point is simply that votes on comments should reflect merit on the actual comment, not because you recognize the posters username and dont like them so you downvote them regardless of what they say.
