Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

Realized another - the awards that reddit created were out of control. I didn't mind avatars too much since customization can be fun and it was optional, but the awards are spammed and shown on most reddit clients.

I actually support awards here with the option of hiding them, i think it'd be a good, relatively ethical way to monetize lemmy.

Yeah that’s a really good point. Maybe a portion of the award funds for a given post could go to that post’s creator’s server and a portion to a pooled fund for all servers/servers reaching capacity?

Of course this and any other ideas re monitising should be carefully thought out re perverse incentives 😬
