Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

If you really want a space to talk freely about your concerns

They were brief, another user asked for a longer version. The user even intro'ed their comment with "my reticence to speak freely", and then went ahead explaining since the other user seemed genuinely interested.

In a way this whole episode including your participation is very relevant to "avoid as the user base grows". I also don't think concern troll fits here, or maybe we use different definitions.

Personally, I wish people could get along with each other despite having different points of view. That's one major, major value I see in platforms like this. I want to be exposed to views challenging my bubble.
