I don’t think it was ever about the points not even on reddit. People make good comments and contributions because they like the response. People moderate because they like controlling people.
Also I feel like tagging every image is a lot of work for barely any point. There is no point in me tagging a cat picture just to avoid the possibility someone with a catpic phobia is browsing.
If lemmy got a tag section the poster could add a tag or two if needed and an algorithm could be used to suggest relevant tags based off the title/post.

Look at how well tagged pictures are in this website: https://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=list
The poster isn’t necessarily the one doing the tagging. Those tags are added by everybody.
