Never put two and two together, but you are absolutely right! I always go back and check to see how many upvotes my comments get; really had no rational reason why but dopamine definitely makes sense.
I have an addictive personality, so Reddit just further feeds that.
Awe shit we are just like Instagram hoes. We think we are better but we are all the same, we just don't have big asses or pretty faces. Or we are too arrogant.
I delete my accounts every now and again, this one is due being toasted too tbh. I recognised that I was having fun just getting the reply notification rather than enjoying the discussion.

Yes, but reddit has the karma system which just increases the dopamine. Reddit itself becomes a game and karma becomes the points.
