Where can I see my karma score? I cannot find it.

    You mean like a total upvote count? Don’t think lemmy has it. From what I gather the points on individual posts is solely for determining visibility.

      The karma score in Reddit is the result of all upvotes received minus downvotes. Which can also result in a negative score (under zero). As far as I was concerned it was useful to me to have in Reddit an overall image about the appreciation of my posts and comments.

        Yeah, I don’t think Lemmy has it. And I’m not sure it would have functioned in that way on a federated system like Lemmy. The increasing mono-culture on reddit would give you an impression of the community appreciation but Lemmy is made up of several, distinctly different communities. A post or comment could get a lot of support by libertarians and opposed by communists. Or the other way around, in the end netting you a somewhat neutral score.

          I had not thought of that and I rather agree. However, I meant a karma score that only I can see, so I can see if I am in the wrong place with the right ideas or viceversa… 😄
