Maybe they mean the rules around karma, like how some subs won't let you post until you have accumulated some karma within the sub.

It was a way of cutting down spam/bots, and it worked.

I never saw a count of my karma. Is it hidden from the user? This is now a mystery to me

On reddit, it's on your profile. You have a post karma and a comment karma. Lemmy doesn't keep track of that, it only counts votes per post and doesn't tally up the total per user.

I may be wrong, or it may be the app that's doing the counting. Either way, I guess it amounts to the same thing, you can definitely find the number somewhere. I know I can't check from a browser.
