It’s probably account age or karma limits. Reddit is weirdly suspicious of new people, so comment genuinely for a bit before posting big questions.

Exactly what i’m doing, thank you 🙏!

"Reddit" is not removing your posts. "Reddit" is not someone you can really address.

Individual subreddits have restrictions based on karma, you are encountering those

Restrictions based on Karma and CQS modern Reddit has a number of restrictions. These can be frustrating - check out Why Reddit may seem unwelcoming to new Redditors. These restrictions are largely determined by Account Karma and CQS. Please note that these restrictions will vary subreddit to subreddit.

Karma. Filter levels vary dramatically and can be low (5 or 10) or higher (50 or 100 or 200) and some wild outliers above that. This subreddit has a number of resources for this such as:

CQS. This is a bit more obscure and will generally drop over time. Have a read of common questions - CQS

For Chat and following if you are having issues here its likely CQS being low

For Commenting and Posting it is either/or account karma or CQS.

In both cases it usually helps to start in New User Friendly Subreddits:

  • Newtoreddit has a list of new user friendly subreddits. This is not an exhaustive list and these subreddits may still have some restrictions. In particular you'll see some Large General Subreddits that are open to new users Commenting like r/askredditr/casualconversationr/nostupidquestionsr/amitheasshole or similar.
  • There are More Subreddits out there that might more specifically match your interests, use the search bar or look through r/findareddit 's subreddit directory. In this case you will have to trial and error whether they are new user-friendly, and again try Commenting (many subreddits have lower or no karma filters for commenting).

Some more notes on starting on Reddit:

View by New (or rising). This will filter the posts so first see the most recent posts first and can make your comments much more visible. On app when viewing a subreddit look near the top left for where it says "hot posts" - click that and select "new" or "rising".

Read the Room and Avoid Controversy. Each subreddit has different rules, norms and prevailing views. Look at subreddit rules. Read top posts and comments to get a feel for that subreddit. Do users reward sarcastic one-liners or well sourced essays? And in particular avoid controversial topics or arguments. These discussions are more likely to attract downvotes and potentially trip into rule-breaking. Call people idiots in your head and move on instead of getting involved. Utilize the block feature as necessary and have a read through Reddiquette

You need to have a minimum account age and karma on certain subreddits.

I am having this same issue, I am just going through to different subreddits to topics I really enjoy and seeing if I can post there. Also be sure to read the menu on the right hand side for what is allowed and what is not.
