Here are some tips for you to earn karma:

To build your karma, posting and commenting in New User Friendly Subs with Low to No karma requirements is good, where you can accumulate karma for the time being. Here is a list of them made by the mods:

1. Try to be the first on commenting a post, and don’t talk about controversial topics/get into arguments, since these will (very) likely make your posts downvoted, which leads to the losing of karma (Potentially a lot at one time, if in popular subreddits)

2. Instead, read the OP’s post carefully before commenting, and do some research. This will prevent you getting off topic, while you will also produce more good quality content.

3. Post MEANINGFUL content there. One word comments do not help and will even lower your karma score. Avoid using emojis.

4. And most importantly, match the mood of that specific sub. For example, don’t comment with jokes and memes in a ‘disease-related’ sub.

5. When you post in these subs, try reasoning with the audience (redditors). In your comments, show your knowledge and passion about the subject matter.
