View submission: Karma for text-posts (AKA self-posts)
Yes but only allowing karma for link posts means that karma farmers and spammers are going to focus more on big link-based subreddits like /r/funny, /r/pics, /r/mildlyinteresting, and /r/EarthPorn which means more work for them. (I mod those last two btw so I've seen this first hand.)

I'm not sure what your angle is, here. Are you saying that at least this way it's spread out? Because I don't think that's really the way it works, I think it'll just encourage people who shitpost in the comments to start shitposting in the actual posts.
