Karma in lemmy?
-
I was super active in drama subs because I am a drama whore at heart. I knew how to just farm karma on them. Lukewarm take with just enough ability to be disageed with that the "bad" people will interact driving up the interactions.
All you gotta do is post stuff like "thank you to the brave firefighters" on posts involving firefighters. Not knocking on firefighters or trying to diminish their contributions, but it was always hilarious seeing how many top comments basically said nothing more than that. I was always doing it as satire but I don't think people realized.

Thanks for the heads up on which instances to avoid!!
TBH: It does sound bad, but it is one of the best ways to lower the effort needed for moderating. Currently every idiot from every instance can show up in your community and start spamming. You have to clean up after you're back from work and have other things to do. Set a reasonable limit on account age and karma and that will keep the biggest idiots, because they will be banned or downvoted to oblivion before they can start posting in your turf.

Don't get me started on Karma farming bots. A Karma system does more harm than good.
