1 year agoFormer redditor. What do I call myself now? Lemming? lol But I also noticed that I don’t see some Karma score equivalent, which is a great thing to leave behind. Those imaginary points were just useless at best, and used against people who were new at the worst.
That’s really difficult to do with a karma-like system. People posting in echo-chambers can post misinformation but receive many up votes.
Credibility is subjective. For example, people on one side of a political ideology will not think people on the opposite side are credible. So who can really determine an “attribute of credibility”?
We would have to agree on a standard first and that’s just not going to happen.
