I know that karma is a contentious issue on Lemmy, but I like having the feature where it is displayed on user profiles. For trolls especially, it helps to know if they should be ignored or not, like if they have -3000 karma for example. I have always noticed karma appearing in boost when viewing a user’s profile, but today after logging out and back in, I noticed I no longer have that feature. Karma is no longer shown on profiles for me.
It doesn’t seem like anyone else is having the issue and the recent changelog entries don’t mention it. Did I inadvertently change a setting and now I just can’t find that setting to change it back?
I wish the API would at least return an upvote/downvote ratio for the user, like it does for posts. It’d make it easy to spot trolls without creating the incentive for karma whoring.
That’s a good idea.
