No, like posting a gif leads you to have -1 social score, hidden, because you posted a gif. There’s so many opinions in the code.

You have point but on the other side, its goal is to avoid karma farming and help mods, admins for creating a serene place for discussion.

There is two distinct score : reputation, attitude.

  • Reputation is people's reaction to your comment and post.
  • attitude is how you vote. If you do mass downvote, your ability to downvote is removed until you reach a balance between upvote/downvote.

When we post a gif, and everyone laugh, it's easy to get a good reputation whereas elsewhere, i might post several terrible comments. That's why posting gif doesn't credit you reputation. You can't use gif to bypass bad comment and get a good reputation.

That's why it works like that.

And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much more with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome 🀟😁
