A new joy of using Lemmy: being able to actually see how many downvotes a comment got. It's been so long since Reddit tossed that feature that I forgot how much I missed it.
My Reddit account is still mostly subscribed to cat subreddits, so I don't see it as often, but yeah, the trend you're noticing is 100% real.
I have a similar complaint about almost all "gamer gear" having RGB lighting. Why would I want that? I'm not even opposed to the "gamer" aesthetic of a lot of sharp lines and strong colors, I think that can look really good, but when my mousepad has RGB it's time to blow the whistle and stop all manufacturing until we can figure out what's going on.
Back in 2013-ish there was a bot that would convert your karma to crypto back when it was cheap enough to just throw around like that. That was the only time in my life that I was ever paid to post, and it was like $6. I wonder how much it would be if I were to find that wallet now, but that was on an account that no longer exists. Oh, well!
I'm definitely going to be using it more often. The official Reddit app is so bad that Sync being for something else is enough to make me move.
