karma (or upvotes-downvotes aka simple karma) shouldn’t be a reason to disallow someone from using a lemmy community

I don’t know what form of karma Wander meant, but for me the “global karma” numbers are the worst part of reddit. People constantly posting stupid things or self-censoring to try to make number go up.

Requiring minimum positive karma is stupid when it can be gamed so easily.

Someone with very negative karma is likely a troll.
