I recently found this Firefox extension that looks safe (I checked some network activity but DOUBLE CHECK) and brings back Karma on Lemmy!

INB4: if you don’t like karma on lemmy, you are in good company. There is no need to hate the ones that do like them.

Of course being unofficial it’s just a cosmetic feature, so it hopefully can be a funny thing without going to be toxic like on Reddit.

How much karma do u have?

    if you want to view exposed ‘karma’, you’ll nee to pick a different product than lemmy. id suggest kbin/mbin.

    the lemmy devs are hard set against it.

      Noted. It was just a funny innocent thing tbh but I see, is a spicy topic in the lemmy community

        they really want to be this alternative/off-ramp to reddit but dont really want to provide the features that draw users to reddit. i get it, some of those features are abused to some extent.

        i feel this feature should be instance-specific. the developers shouldnt make that call. the instance admin should be able to enable what the _community_wants. if lemmy.world hates karma, groovy, but let lemmy.ca show it if they want.

          totally agree on that. If we want to keep being a healthy alternative to reddit, freedom is the minimum i expect
