How much karma are you burning? (lemmy.ml)

One of the things platforms use to keep us coming back and investing more of our time in building their site for them, is Internet Points. They don't do anything, but we still crave them.

On Reddit, these Internet Points are, of course, called "karma"

In moving on from Reddit, I'm burning over 80k karma.
It feels fine. I mean, it has no real value, and bots can scrounge up that amount of karma in an afternoon, but it still represents a sizable time investment.

How much are you burning, and how do you feel about it?

Like a few thousand across five accounts? I had closer to 10k on an old account that I deleted entirely a few years ago, after redacting all my comments. Always been more of a lurker than an active user.
