They could make it optional to each seperate instance in the Fediverse. I could see it being popular on Lemmy for the Dopamine hit. Less so on some of the more focused or political instances.
do we count to profile carma points received from no-carma instances?
If so, people from profile-carma instances would still be prone to cheap attention farming.
How it is now is perfect personaly for me: there are still discussions, less popular, more disagreeaple comments are still at the bottom, and you still can see, how controversial your opinion is. And, as i already said, this system still removes whole cast of cheap carma farmers, making interactions more meaningful on average.
Lemmy is still prettx underground, but let’s be honest, it’d probably stay undergound. This site is a bunch of nerds dreaming of a future without corpo dictature on what should and what should not be. It’s good to dream big, but dreaming about becoming another reddit is kinda stupid if you ask me.
You wanna make lemmy more popular? Talk about it over other social media in a good light (not just fucking tankie reddit), repost screenshots and memes from over there, etc. Profile-visible carma is just not it.
but then, lemmy is foss, you can do it yourself, if you really believe in your idea.
