Also karma on Reddit is basically irrelevant. The only place it matters is in automoderation removing posts and comments for users under a certain level of karma.
I once wanted to post a meme on r/memes. My post got removed because I needed a lot more karma (my estimation was that I needed 1k each for both comments and posts but it wouldn’t actually tell me how much I needed). I REALLY hope that doesn’t appear here. It just blocks people from making and sharing content with others.
Probably people from Reddit defending the idea of a karma system, they always say that they’re made up internet points but the fact that Karma restrictions exist and are enforceable proves that wrong.
Literally seen 0 people asking for karma system

It is not irrelevant. It increases dopamine, which is highly addictive.
Getting upvotes maybe, but nobody pays attention to their aggregate karma.
Not to be mean but, ritch folk dont watch their bank account directly, they have analog wasy of mesuring, like if they can buy “X” without renting.
People will do strange things rather extensively to watch arbitrary numbers go up. Especially children.
Watching numbers go up is basically the whole gameplay loop of an ARPG. It’s fun.
You need Karma, in so many subs. Not only comments karma, also posts karma and all that stupid shit
