Real talk though, why do Reddit upvotes/downvotes matter? Like I get the whole endorphins for people liking something you said. Cool, neat.

But the fuck do I care how many upvotes my account has? I’ve literally never seen a use for them.

Somebody ELI5 it for me.

also if your karma is too low or your subreddit karma is too low, you have posting/commenting restrictions

People with nothing in their irl lives need positive reinforcement from an internet strangers hivemind.

People who care about upvotes and karma are pathetic.
