āKarma farmingā isnāt even possible on Lemmy. Thereās literally no total of up- and downvotes displayed anywhere. And having a meme artificially pushed to the top without reason seems to be nonsensical to me.
Itās a kbin account, we have reputation points here, similar to Reddit karma. Even if they post to a lemmy community from kbin, upvotes and boosts will give them karma
There was no point to it on Reddit either but that obviously did not stop people.
Someone coming from reddit that doesnāt understand how lemmy works? Will it be a self correcting problem once they realize thereās absolutely nothing to be gained by shilling posts? Will be interesting to see how this plays out. On a related note, does anyone know if you block a user are their votes still included in the totals you see for posts and comments?
