I like the way it was here. Points seem to be working correctly or did. I think it's a bad idea to put point totals on a users profile for everyone to see. I don't think totals are or should be important. But upvotes and downvotes are indicators of how much value a reader thinks a post/comment has. You can't tell the temperature in a room without numbers. But I would rather not see a reddit-like karma system.
Yet every app seemingly wants to show me a total :(
Yeah, I wish there was a feature that lets you switch between total-only and lemmy format.
