Reddit

I feel manipulated by the karma. It has no value and yet I care when i get downvoted. It's a huge warning sign to get off reddit and into a healthier community.

I had like 20000 karma on some previous reddit account i deleted a few years back. Current one has 3000 karma or so. Because I post a lot, and I wrote things people agree with usually. But it's a echo chamber, and once I start to limit myself to writing things that are "safe" from a karma point of view, I'm literally just supporting the entire karma system.

It's something very Chinese about these points. They have this social system where citizens have a score, and if they get too low, they can't get loans and whatnot. Pretty much what the show black mirror was showing, and China now has it.

200k+ comment karma, from 75,000 comments. I've run PowerDeleteSuite, but it hasn't quite got everything. I think I need to use the GDPR request csv files to get the comments that don't display in the profile, but I'm looking for something that will automate this.

107k. But what really matters to me are the thanks I got from people I helped out with book recommendations.

About 90k. It’s fine. I care less about the karma then I do about loosing the community’s, but they were going downhill for a long time anyway.

I am still a bit dumbfounded as to why people care about an arbitrary number.

I looked it up now and apparently it is over 400000. But it still doesn't do anything right?

PowerDeleteSuited my 10 year old acct history with ~650k comment karma. Took half a dozen runs. Not deleting the account bc I don't want that username recycled but otherwise done. Actually kind of nice to move on and back to a smaller but more committed userbase.

I have ~5100 karma, I've never really cared about the total karma amount but it is fun to see a comment or post be upvoted. They feel like social points and that makes me think of "that" episode of Black Mirror, and as @[email protected] said, China has implemented that. It's crazy.

But as I always say, in the end, the people have the power. Always.

27k here, not terribly worried about it honestly.

I've never really been much of a poster, so I've only managed to earn roughly 6.5k karma (shared across a few accounts) in my almost a decade in Reddit.

While it feels nice to have that feeling of validation upon seeing my response being invited, I didn't really feel going out of my way to be more active for some reason.

99,8k Karma. I would've loved the 100k but in the end I don't really care The thing I will miss the most though is the shitposting from r/anarchychess

360k and ten years.

Such a waste of time. This was what I needed to make healthier choices. Less time spent scrolling, less time commenting. Lemmy is my methodone right now.

Not my account, but my bot, thebenshapirobot, just reached 600,000 karma in about a year and a half. I was always hoping it'd get to a million karma while trolling Ben Shapiro. The bot is currently off as part of the blackout, and frankly I have no idea if the API changes will affect it because I haven't bothered to read them.

Like a few thousand across five accounts? I had closer to 10k on an old account that I deleted entirely a few years ago, after redacting all my comments. Always been more of a lurker than an active user.

70k combined

170k, I don't mind at all though. I only got it because I thought it was funny to have a big number.

I'm not sure about 30k for a 3 year old account. Had multiple over 10 years. I just used to delete them when it got attention from the Admins.

Turns out saying fuck /u/gallowboob for his bullshit admin abuse makes them really mad at you. DMs and site wide bans from big subs is easily done.

Hope Reddit dies and they have no power.

347k. I care about it as much as any imaginary number you can make go higher in a game - once you lose interest in the game, the numbers don't matter any more.

I have 200K. Most of it I got it from reposting lol.

Somewhere north of 200k. I don't care at all.

~3k and I don't really care about it. Mostly because I was a lurker.. Rarely engaging in a few things.

0.96k — and 15 years. I'm a pathological lurker, send help.

Im one point short of 125k karma, I'm frankly stunned that my 9 years of shitposts and random sarcasm had been appreciated that much

I think my longest and last account was around 26k. End of an era

About 30k in karma. I didn't use Reddit much on desktop but was addicted to Apollo. Every time I had more than a few seconds I would take out my phone and browse it. I think ultimately this will be a good thing. The quality of the posts and people in a lot of the subs I frequented had taken a nosedive the last couple of years, and others had very poor or biased moderation.

About 9k, meh..

Around 700 karma. Let it burn, we should abolish karma forever since it only promotes echo chambers and stiffles actual discussion.

About 34K combined. Prior to that account, I had 2x 250K accounts.

what does grass feel like again?

Honestly, I think karma, points, upvotes and the like should all be invisible. It's functionality for bringing specific posts or comments to the top is useful, but the number itself serves no purpose being displayed to the user.

I had 9k on my recent account, I got most of it from one post on a drama sub. I was mostly a lurker that changed accounts periodically whenever I felt paranoid, was on reddit for 7 years.

14.1k I had it since 2006 because I wanted the username, but didn't start really using it until 3 years ago and now we're here.

I discovered reddit not so long ago, since I am not a social kind of person I mainly lurked there for memes, info and news about my hobbies and humor in general. Never had the crave for karma points (or Internet points in general) but I can understand it. Posted a comment about world of warcraft that reached almost 5000 karma (i really don't know why, but as I said I was not into the reddit mechanics, so maybe I am the one that cannot get the point). I think it's quite a lot for only one comment!

< 92 k on my main and <18 k on my alt. The karma never really made any difference other than being able to post on some subs.
