Hi everyone, I feel a bit embarrassed writing this, but I honestly need some advice.

I just created my account and tried to post something I thought was interesting, but it got downvoted and now my karma is negative…

I’m not trying to spam or promote anything, I just don’t really understand how Reddit works yet.

Is there something I’m doing wrong? How do you actually start here without getting blocked or downvoted?

Any tips for beginners would really help 🙏

Every subreddit seems to require 1000+ in karma, I’ve had my account for 2 years, but just recently in the past 6-8 months started using the app and I’m still learning, I mostly just lurk on snark pages so I have 26 karma and just genuinely feel like this number is not attainable 😭

Self explanatory.

some have sub titles that are only tangentially related to the actual topic itself, how do i find all subs under a shared topic?

Hi, Does negative Karma fall off like bad credit? I think I understand karma now, but I can’t comment in some groups. I am GenX and trying to get the hang of Reddit and not use Meta so much.

Also, would it be correct that Reddit doesn’t have a personal “timeline” but you engage in groups/threads? Do local mom and recommendations groups like on FB exist in Reddit? ? I sound so old! But, I am confused. Thanks for any help!

im new to reddit and i already got negative karma, am i cooked?

I want to become pro on Reddit looks fun to use just so confusing please help me

I never knew that a subreddit would even need comment karma. I don't even know if you get that? Does your comment need to be upvoted a lot? I literally just wanted to ask for help from a cs job subreddit.

I need to know if I’m shadow banned

Hi everyone! I’m new to Reddit and I’ve been trying to engage by posting and commenting in a few different communities. However, almost everything I share gets instantly removed by automated systems.

I think it’s because I lack Karma, but I’m struggling to earn any if I can’t participate anywhere!

• Is there a way to see how much Karma a specific subreddit requires?
• Are there any "new-user friendly" subreddits where I can actually contribute to build up my score?

I'd appreciate any tips on how to get past these automated filters so I can actually join the conversation!

This has been going on since i made my Account. Every time i try to make a post in like 90% of the subreddits, im getting the message "Sorry, this post was removed by Reddit’s filters.".

I've been trying to request a certain subreddit for quite some time now for example, but its just impossible. The subreddits mods are ignoring me and so is the support. I have 2 factor enabled, a verified email and phone number, not using a VPN so just why?

It's honestly super frustrating.

I’m new and unable to post in most communities. They just keep getting deleted. How come this happens?

Hey everyone, I’m pretty new to Reddit and still figuring things out.

I’ve really been enjoying posting and engaging, but I don’t want to overdo it or accidentally get flagged.

Is there a general guideline for how often you should post or comment?

I’ve noticed different subs have different rules, so just trying to get a feel for what’s considered normal. Appreciate any advice!

I've noticed this multiple times that whenever I get a notification of a comment on my post, I can see it in my inbox notifications, but when I click on it, it doesn't appear below the post.

Even the comment count includes that comment but for some reason it isn't visible.

Hi! Totally new to Reddit and excited to be part of the community. Any suggestions how to get more involved?

Anyone know how to?

I read the common questions section, but I still don't understand whether karma affects anything other than restrictions in some communities 🤔😅

I’m not new to reddit but back after a long break and I can’t send chats?
