    Fair, but AFAIK upvotes right now don’t do much right? I’m still getting used to fediverse’s ways ( ˶ˆ꒳ˆ˵ )

      Pretty sure they serve the same purpose they do on reddit. In a feed on a Lemmy/kbin instance they control the ranking/order of posts and comments.

      However I don’t think they change reputation/karma at all.

        It’s the other way around.

        At least for the top sorting order, boost seems to be all that matters.

        Reputation uses the formula upvotes - downvotes + 2*boost iirc.
