I recently found this Firefox extension that looks safe (I checked some network activity but DOUBLE CHECK) and brings back Karma on Lemmy!

INB4: if you don't like karma on lemmy, you are in good company. There is no need to hate the ones that do like them.

Of course being unofficial it's just a cosmetic feature, so it hopefully can be a funny thing without going to be toxic like on Reddit.

How much karma do u have?

Ah karma. That's something I really did not miss one fucking second. It can stay there please!

I don't like gamification features as (like ABA) they reek of behavioral psychology.

applyied behavioral analytics. A type of therapy used primarily for individuals with disabilities that relies on reward systems heavily. ABA though, to me shouldnt be controversial because of it using gamification but because of the specific behaviors often targeted with the interventions. Positive behaviorism is pretty much the standard in education even outside of this therapy and outside special education.
