Fun fact: while not being exactly like what karma was on Reddit, Lemmy does store the total count of upvotes-downvotes your account has received. You probably can’t see it because it isn’t shown by the frontend (the website you see), but the data is indeed there.

This. Defed is not the magic weapon that will solve all your problems. Captcha and email filters should be on by default though.

I STRONGLY ADVISE you against doing the following, but for educational purposes, just rename the file .husky/pre-commit to anything else. I called mine _pre-commit and slapped a README next to it documenting what I did. This will turn off the husky pre commit job, which is what runs prettier.

Not sure if it’s the same issue you are having, in my case prettier failed to run and that didn’t allow me to commit at all.

The pain of working on the lemmy frontend. I “fixed” this by turning off prettier.
