What is your opinion about Lemmy not having karma but Kbin having reputation points? (lemmy.ml)

Personally, I prefer Lemmy over Kbin because I hate karma and reputation points. I do not want to worry about downvotes, and Lemmy feels so fresh. I can post things that will receive lots of downvotes and not need to worry about losing karma.

The way reputation works on Kbin isn't great anyway.

That's because it has a bug. They changed upvotes from boost -> like to be compatible with Lemmy. The reputation calculation hasn't been updated yet. It probably will be soon. Might even have a PR already.

There's a bug filed but no PR because a decision hasn't been made on how to deal with it.
