Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

I agree with you. I hope karma is not implemented on Lemmy. The up/downvote system is fine the way it is now. I will say also coins and awards. I don’t really think those are necessary. I’m aware that was something characteristic to reddit (correct me if I’m wrong) but I prefer all that to not come back.
I thought coins and awards were dumb. I think durable comment logs and karma are good things, though.
If karma becomes visible on Lemmy, I think it will start having the same problem of karma farm bots like reddit, people reposting to receive positive karma, trolls saying controversial things to receive negative karma, lots of spam, you know. . .
