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.

    I am disappointed by this. Karma ruins whole discussions, and I hope the devs never add something bloody dreadful like that.

      It’s necessary because the website is transparent, if you were to federate with an instance, you’d need this information in order to moderate your instance, in order to check for bots, and various other things, that’s the only reason it exists.
