    How do you tally it? I’ve seen lots of discussions about guesses about how the reddit system works.

      I run an API request on loop until there are no posts/comments left. Then I somply add up their score. Sorry for the late response btw

        Ko problem. Ok, so just the sum of all up- and downvotes. No dicounting for viral posts, etc.

          I didn’t really understand but it’s basically (all upvoted) - (all downvotes)

            Ok. Reddit has some really elaborate system where the first upvotes gives 1 karma, then after upvote 500 or something, each only gives 0.5 karma or something, etc.
