Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

    A relatively small thing: the 500-comment viewing limit for normal accounts. So many times on Reddit I’ve been put off engaging with posts with 500+ comments knowing that nobody would see it. It’s stupid because comments are just text and unless the software design is absolutely terrible then simple text comments shouldn’t take up bandwidth at all.

      Funny that Reddit pretends to be saving you bandwidth by not loading comments, but has no problem loading 100MB of javascript bloat.

      step 1. create discomfort for users

      step 2. remove discomfort at the small price of $3.99 / month at a 30% discount for new users NOW at your nearest Walmart and 35% discount for senior citizens, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, supporters of the R or D party at the local youth center and old members of the Jean Baptiste Church down the corner because they’re cool and they rent our DVDs sometimes.
