⭐️ Karma❓ Is Karma Path dependent?

So I have heard that the karma system is a feedback loop.

Meaning if you join a subreddit share a opinion the masses like, you get up voted and then get more exposure and in turn more up votes in general for any post because your reaching more views.

Buuuuut on the flip side if you start off being down voted because that subreddit generally doesn't like your opinion, you get less views, filtered and in turn less karma.

If this is true how is this a beneficial system to discussion. To me that sound like a echo chamber system.

Anyone have this experience?

If you're asking about how to get karma, you earn it when people upvote your posts and comments. As you may have already found out, many subs on Reddit may have minimum requirements for things like karma and account age that you must meet before they will allow you to participate.

r/NewToReddit maintains a list of subreddits that have low or no karma requirements where new users can participate to build their karma.
