Why Lemmy is so superior to Reddit: No Karma, Just Value Content

Jump

  • Yeah, but in this day and age we’re going to grow with easy-to-consume content e.g. memes. Once growth hits a critical mass then the niche communities will come.

  • I would imagine if you made karma points limited on the spender side rather than unlimited, then it might make users “try harder” to get validation, thus improving the quality of content on average.

    Or it all could be bullshit and fail. Hard to say. You are right though, it’s all manufactured for engagement.

  • I think the only way to really fix this is to make votes a limited asset that accounts have. There are forums where this has worked okay: bodybuilding.com forums has a reputation system where accounts are limited in what they can give to other voters.

    As long as “karma” is unlimited it suffers from the same problems whether you count it in aggregate or not. As some other commenters have said, people still seek validation in individual comments. I know because I do too.

  • You have to be living under a rock to not know that WoW is still an incredibly popular game. It’s easily still the most popular MMORPG

    • If you still use reddit, do you feel bad for doing so?

    Jump

  • I have ad blocker. I don’t comment. I don’t post. I only downvote. I only view my home feed. I only do all this on PC, and URL-blocked Reddit off my phone, significantly reducing the time I have to search.

    But sometimes I just need to have the content there. I think I’ve done about the best I can considering.

    • TIL Nintendo was founded in 1889 as a playing card company in Kyoto, Japan. They made traditional Japanese 'hanafuda' cards and didn't start making video games until the 1970s.

  • Surely by now this is one of Nintendo’s most well known facts?
