MODERATORS
Make no mistake if the fediverse keeps gaining traction there will still be gamification so long as there are points associated with posts. Even more so since profiles are generally less anonymous than reddit.
How so?
My profile tells you I use an instance (in this case my own, dusty-radio) and my username on that instance (in this case Dusty). All this tells you is the name I've chosen and that I host this myself. It's no different than if I was Dusty on reddit, other than the instance URL.
Supposedly your entire up-vote / down-vote history is publically available through some API calls. I haven't verified it myself, but the what I have seen makes it look plausible.
