How Is Reddit Karma Calculated?

When you first start earning Karma, it looks like every upvote adds a point to it. But once you get into the thousands, the math becomes a little murkier. Reddit uses an algorithm to calculate Karma and doesn’t disclose exactly how it works. Allegedly, the more upvotes a link or comment gets, the less Karma each upvote is worth. That means a comment with 15K upvotes isn’t necessarily going to get you 15K of Comment Karma.
