A good active place to earn comment karma?

I recently made this account for self improvement and betterment, but I currently can't post anything to any relevant sub due to my low combined karma and was wondering if there was any good active subs that are known to have a healthy comment environment (the more wholesome the better)

Thanks for any help

Karma Confusion - Posts and Messages

I had an account for years and a while back I deleted it because I got rid of social media for a while. I decided to make a new account for my photography work, and now seem to be having issues with messages and posts. Don’t ever remember having a problem messaging in the past but now I’m “not established.” Any help or advice is much appreciated. Thanks!

Does karma go down if you post/comment things and they don’t get upvotes?

For example, let’s say you got 100 up-votes on comments, and then the rest of your comments get only 1 up-vote (from yourself.) Does the karma average out, causing your karma to actually go down?

How do I know how much karma I need to post in a subreddit

Started actually using this reddit account about a month ago. (I had previously only made it because when you want answers to certain things and click on a reddit link it says "download the app", so I did in order to figure out what I was trying to figure out). Now I would actually like to start using it and getting involved in certain forums of things that I am interested in. A lot of times I will write a fully fledged post, post it, then have a thing that says "Sorry, this post was taken down by the moderators" immediately after. I am assuming this is due to a lack of karma. Is there any way to know how much karma I need to post in a subreddit? Is there an "average" amount of karma you need in order to unlock most subreddits? Any help would be appreciated.

In need of advice regarding Karma, Achievements and Subreddits.

Hi,

I'm new to Reddit and have a few questions about how things work, like Karma, Achievements, and Subreddits. I’m wondering what the requirements are for posting in certain subreddits. I found some subreddits I’m interested in and wanted to contribute, but my posts automatically get removed. I’ve also noticed that some comments from other users are automatically hidden. Does this have to do with low Karma or them having been moderated?

Since I’m just starting, do you have any advice on how and where to build up Karma? It seems like many subreddits have some kind of Karma limit. How can I see these limits? What even is this feature used for?

My other question related to achievements. I’ve noticed that some users don’t have any achievements visible on their profiles while others do like myself, like the entire ahievement feature is just not there for some people and I’m wondering why that is. Do people that are moderated get their achievement feature entirely taken away from them?

Also, what role do achievements play in your reputation or eligibility to post in certain subreddits? Does having or not having achievements affect your ability to contribute?

I really look forward to your replies and thank you in advance!

How much time do i have to wait to post?

My account is two days old. I want to post in some subreddits, but I need karma, so I joined a subreddit where people post pet photos (I read the rules, and it doesn't specify a minimum karma requirement). I tried to upload a photo of my cat, but it says I need karma or an older account. My post was removed, and I don't want to risk anything

How long should I wait before I start posting?

I had reddit for almost 6 years but i have literally 0 karma, I never worried about it but it seems you need to have a high amount of it to post in basically every community. How can i get it fast? (i only know upvotes)
