2. What is reddit?
Reddit Overview
It is a type of online
community where users,
also known as “redditors”,
post news, stories,
information, and just about
anything you could think of.
These users have the power
to upvote or downvote posts.
When you go to reddit what
shows up is the front page.
This page contains the most
popular posts at the
moment.

6. Comments
When reading or
viewing a post, you can

Through these
comments you can
communicate with the
poster, and the rest of
the reddit community
that is viewing the post
as well.

Karma is an overall view of yourself on

link and comment karma. When people
upvote your links and comments your
karma amount increases. When they
downvote you, your karma decreases.

9. Subreddits
Subreddits are basically the categories that
separate information and posts. Therefore the
viewers can find the specific things they are
looking for easily.
Pictures, Funny, Politics.
These are only an example of a few
subreddits. Though there is no age limit on
reddit, some subreddits may be boring or
inappropriate for young children.
