livusI'm trying to stop caring about it. On reddit I have well over a million karma, and what have I got to show for it?
Here in the fediverse I hope to concentrate on quality interactions rather than quantity.
I’m just glad that in Lemmy you can join the conversation a few hours after submission and still have your message seen by someone.
I hadn’t thought about that but you’re totally right.
It’s like being at a small dinner party vs. Burning Man :)
ScottI got a reply over a day after my initial response on a thread asking if I remembered to change a Firefox setting. And my reply to that even is still getting a bit of upvotes on it.
steboIt’s because the hot comment sorting algorithm is different from Reddit’s. It favours fresh discussions over older threads even if they have more upvotes.
Xylight (Photon dev)Lemmy’s comment ranking goal was to do exactly that: don’t punish new comments on an old thread.
