Please excuse my sub-par JavaScript, I am a backend dev.

All you need to do is paste this into Tampermonkey and enter your username and your instance url (on two locations).

This is not showing other users’ scores and it doesn’t make your score visible to anyone else than yourself.

So no need for karma farming. This is just for fun.

      Fair… My concern is people starting to engage with content here only for the promise of fake internet points.

      To each their own tho.

        Isn’t the actual point that other people can see your karma? That’s not a risk with this script. I mean you could go around telling people your karma but that’d be super lame.
