I feel free !
Thanks to Power Delete Suite.
I actually run cupoftea.social on mastodon so I was already very familiar with the fediverse. The more platforms for it the better.

    I’ll go against the “it doesn’t matter” grain and give you a real answer: It just feels good to know people like having you around and appreciate your contributions. I could look at my karma total and know that in the 12 years I used reddit, an average of ~27 people per day, every day, appreciated the fact that I was there. Even if it took almost nothing for them to show it, it was nice to be reminded that I connected with that many people in a positive way.

      On the other hand, it makes the site as a whole shittier, because people become obsessed with making their number bigger, and a huge amount of activity is done purely with that goal in mind.

        Well, I only claim to speak for how I view it – why people care about it (which was the question). Not some guess at how it affects the site overall.
