Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

The forced 'inside jokes' that filled so many threads, so many times you would see a post and be able to predict the top comment and its replies. Hoping that the lack of account karma helps with that.

Ah, the ole Lemmy switcheroo.

Thanks for the gold, kind stranger.

Don't forget to edit your comment to say thanks when it goes over a thousand upvotes.

I thought the switcharoo one was actually pretty neat.

I feel conflicted between downvoting this as these are the exact types of comments that ended up grinding my gears, or to upvote you because that's precisely why you wrote them.

You mean you don't like reading the same witty one-liners on every third post? I'm looking forward to actual discussion with less farming for fake internet points.

i dunno, but anarchychess memes that leak out into other communities never fail to make me laugh

Seeing "google en passant" everywhere was both annoying and absolutely hilarious.
