Am curious, I know comment karma isn't easier to gain than post karma, but I wanted to know which out of these makes you more trusted by reddit? Which is less prone to shadowbans and account suspension?

Sorry for my English it's not my first language but I hope you understand

As far as my personal experience goes, a good balance of comment karma appears more authentic since it comes out of genuine interaction. Some simple advice: just concentrate on making your discussion worthwhile rather than worrying about the karma.

Based on my experience, it's best to build both comment karma and post karma. Having a healthy balance of both makes your Reddit account appear more established and credible, which can help you participate in more communities and build trust over time.

comment karma usually build more trust because it shows real engagement in discussion not just posting. post karma helps too but comment activity tends to look more natural to reddit's system and users.
