I merge 2 accounts (my work account and my personal account) and now my profile shows -1 reputation point earn,
Does this mean that I must be more active in the community or that is something wrong with one of the accounts?

The same happened with me too. Also, it is written in the article reputation-points that one can't have negative reputation points. Hence, it makes me wonder why is it that way?

I have the same issue.
I do not have any reputation points, although I signed in here, and I think I aligned my personal account with my professional one.
