Unblended

I appreciate that on Mastodon I had the ability to hide stats from my UI view, no harm making it optional I suppose.

I’m not from reddit, what is a reputation and what practical effect does it have? Is it just upvotes minus downvotes?

I found a reputation in my profile of “1” but I don’t have a clue where that came from. I’m not sure why we need to have scores associated with our accounts, that in itself seems toxic to me to care about (clout chasing).

Upvoting comments in threads makes sense, I’m just not seeing any actual practical connection with the thing called “reputation” on my profile. What does it do in a best case?

Can’t control when you do it.

I love #mosstadon (do mastodon tags do anything in posts on kbin I wonder?).

I love how many mastodon posts are people taking pretty pictures of moss or mushrooms or birds.
