There’s some misinformation floating around regarding Lemmy not having a karma system. While many have discovered otherwise, this is for those who may not have.

While it’s not exposed in the Lemmy default user interface, Lemmy does have a fully functional karma system and it is visible in third party clients such as WefWef and Memmy.

Do with that what you will.

    Interesting. I never would’ve considered that since I only sort by New. Can neither confirm nor deny because I can’t read Rust.

      I thought the best/top/hot were governed by upvotes/downvotes on that specific post. Not the user’s Karma.
