I didn’t realise karma was even a thing here

IIRC it’s an intentional decision

It’s not visible here because it leads to people hive minding and being afraid to get down voted for saying the Wrong Opinion™️

Also because karma farmers on Reddit kinda suck

Seeing the same old predictable jokes and pun threads as top comments with thousands of upvotes in serious posts was one of my least favourite things about Reddit.

Any post related to WWII - Top comment “I did Nazi that coming!” 5000 upvotes

The circle jerk was truly shit.
