Karma-whoring. It’s already started with the stupid “upote my can of beans” posts… Dude nobody cares about your internet points, either activity participate or fuck off to Instagram.
There’s just no need for it.
I like the ability to upvote/downvote posts for visibility, but a karma or point system just encourages whoring, which leads to a dirth of lazy and low quality content

Up/Down vote systems also suck, and are inherently problematic, and encourage unhealthy behaviors. I say get rid of them.
