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.

The karma system on Reddit is tied to a lot of things so it's understandable for them to care about it. If an account has low karma, they're more likely to be shadowbanned or suspended. Even when not shadowbanned, their posts and comments will need manual mod approval to be shown to other users.
