One of the things platforms use to keep us coming back and investing more of our time in building their site for them, is Internet Points. They don't do anything, but we still crave them.

On Reddit, these Internet Points are, of course, called "karma"

In moving on from Reddit, I'm burning over 80k karma.
It feels fine. I mean, it has no real value, and bots can scrounge up that amount of karma in an afternoon, but it still represents a sizable time investment.

How much are you burning, and how do you feel about it?

I have only posted a few times in 9 years on Reddit (I only posted when I could answer questions that nobody else was answering) and have about 500 karma there. I might already have more comments here then on Reddit. But Lemmy won't grow by just lurking :p
