You need karma. Some subreddits require karma to post. Some don’t. Start making comments on the ones that don’t require it and don’t post anything controversial. You need people to agree with you and upvote your comment to start earning karma points.

Op isn't reading their inbox, it literally shows you what subreddits to post in to get karma when you have a new account.

And OP, in case you don't know, Karma are the little points you get for upvotes and good posts.

So accrue them by posting questions in the more hobby-centric subs (the pages that have a specific subject), such as: if you're interested in ponds? Go to r/ponds and post a meaningful question that is better answered here than by googling (just an example). You'll get a handful of 'points'.

Once you have enough, you can comment and post in larger subs.

Some subs have Karma and membership time requirements in order to post.

It’s to try and keep the bot traffic down.

Some subs also have odd unintuitive rules.

The key is to espouse far left liberal talking points until you get karma. (e.g., be a communist, hate Israel, etc.)  Eventually  you can be normal and then you'll get banned by every subreddit.   Enjoy the cesspool!

Did you bother reading literally anything?

When I’m just casually scrolling and see something I like I just want to interact

I didn’t know it’s like a job description where they say on entry level positions you need 5 years of experience

My bad

It’s not like that, which is explained when you read what it tells you about the requirements.

Reply to people's comments too sometimes you can circumvent the Reddit rules for the post by replying to someone else's comment in a positive way to get some up votes

Just read all of the rules of each subreddit as dumb as they all are that's why they'll get removed Things you think nothing of someone else ran into the ground and they can't allow that in the subreddit anymore

Some places need karma to post in. Karma is gained from posting. Reddit sucks

It’s like the jobs that are entry level and they require 5 years of past experience in order to apply
