No offense, but I don't like this. Not having Karma is one of the main advantages lemmy has. Karma sucks.

[–] KazuyaDarklight@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

Agreed, non-cumulative metrics are a pro, not a con.

[–] Yoru@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

all good, I just made it for fun anyways 🫡

honestly, can we just let that die with reddit?

[–] Yoru@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

well, it doesn't have to be called "Karma", it's called "Score" in Lemmy's API. I'm probably going to rename it.

[–] Schlemmy@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yes, but people will be starting to react or act to get 'score'. It incentivises certain behaviour.

You have to install the extension to see your karma score. Don't install it. Problem gone.

[–] strawberry@artemis.camp 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

afaik score is just per post, not a cumulative thing visible on ur account

[–] Nerd02@lemmy.basedcount.com 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No I think there's a total score that is saved in your account but is hidden from the frontend

[–] strawberry@artemis.camp 1 points 1 year ago

dunno. either way, im on kbin, so could be different

While I appreciate your effort and your generosity, unless I’m involved in a conversation about Buddhism, I would be perfectly happy to never hear the word “karma” again.

[–] Yoru@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

well, I was going to change its name to score or something anyways bcuz karma belongs to reddit (at least I think so)

[–] HappyMeatbag@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Hey, I’m just a battle-scarred reddit refugee. Do what you want!

I just noticed it only works for lemmy.ml and lemmy.world, my fault. Will be publishing the fix in a bit. I was a little too excited XD

Thanks! Lmk if you have any suggestions :D

[–] humanplayer2@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

How do you tally it? I've seen lots of discussions about guesses about how the reddit system works.

[–] hal_5700X@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I don't see the point of downvoting this. You have to install the extension to see your karma score. So I don't see what's the big deal is. Clam down, people.

~~EDIT My biggest problem is this add-on needs access your data for all websites. Why not Lemmy sites only?~~

[–] Yoru@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

because there are too many lemmeny instances, cannot possibly add them all

[–] Crul@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

mlmym frontend shows it, although it shows different values depending on the instance:
