That’s the neat part, you don’t.
You definitely can and “karma” definitely exists. Some apps show it, some don’t.
I know. I wanted to say that it just isn’t necessary
Thank goodness for that. It creates a perverse incentive to post nonsense to increase a meaningless number. We will get enough nonsense as it is.
I mean, non sense is not bad, but it has to be posted in a proper place. I don’t mind reading through a funny nonsense thread, but not in a serious post.
We would have to define nonsense. I’m not implying people shouldn’t be silly. I just don’t want spam and bots.
You can see them individually per post on your profile but there is not a global “karma” number. Some people have made api scripts to calculate it but its not an intended part of the platform.
Clarification: How do you check your upvote history on Lemmy (like what you’ve upvoted)
Ah apologies. I don’t think there’s a way right now but there is a feature request out for it: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1673
Thank you
