Lemmy does have a Karma system. It only had, and it’s visible in the API. It’s just not displayed in the default GUI.
Yeah the Memmy app actually displays it
Many apps display it

Another way to look at it is if karma doesn't matter, I honestly could not care less about who reposts my posts or if I get credit for it. I hope it can just be fun to share dumb memes with the world.

I used the cross post function to give you credit because I thought it was funny

If you want to get technical about it we’re all just stealing from Matt Groening, so lets not get too upset.

Shit. Right away after making the comment, I saw that you had cross posted and then immediately deleted my comment.

But apparently it didn’t show up as deleted for others?

Here’s what it looks like for me:

Maybe this is a case of different instances treating comment deletion differently?

Anyway, sorry about making a whiny comment.

You can take my Reputation points when you pry them from my cold dead hands!
They say conscious beings are how the universe gets to know itself, so I AM the cosmos! :P
Unfortunately it does have a karma system. It’s just not as prominent.

Dude, karma.

What?

Karma. Karma.
