It’s basically the same as Reddit karma, it’s just the sum of upvotes+downvotes you got

If it doesn’t even affect anything, I don’t see why I would care lol

Same, idc, but some people care about it. Also piefed cares, I think it puts a red icon in the username of the users with negative reputation and their posts start with 0 upvotes instead of 1. (If I’m not mistaken)

How’s my Mbin karma

It’s 2500~, but it doesn’t affect anything on Mbin, so there’s no point worrying about it

Why not just try all of them out and see which one you like the most? I personally like Mbin the most, but you may like another one. I don’t think anything is stopping you from creating test accounts (And you don’t need extensive time, I imagine it would take a few hours at most)

How a 30k donation to a murderer counts as “uplifting news”? If anything it’s depressing

I mean that’s not the only thing, I can follow this MBin account that I’m using to talk with you from Threads, and I can interact with Threads posts as well, I’ve even gotten likes from there

Something like that is impossible with Twitter, altho I wouldn’t be fully against the idea to reconnect with a few people I know who refused to leave it for whatever reason

Also, look at the bright side, people that use Threads at least don’t use Twitter, I think it’s a small step in the right direction, no?

You can always choose an instance that defederates Threads, that the beauty of the open web
