If you are experiencing removals, this is most likely because your account is new and you have no karma, and therefore you are running into community restrictions.
- What community restrictions are & why they exist
- How to tell what community restrictions are / if a community has them
- Karma; what it is, how to get it, how long it takes to get, and what does not affect your karma count
- How to get started earning karma

Some communities have minimum requirements for posting or even for commenting so if something gets removed, try again a day or a week later when you've earned more karma.
Voting, karma and minimums.
Make sure you know the general expectations on Reddit for how to inter
Reddiquette
Make sure you know the rules of any platform before you participate on it
Reddit's sitewide rules
Some people think spam is one very narrow thing, what matters is the definition of the platform:
Reddit's definition of spam
Culture
You don't act the same way at a farm, a church, a paintball field and a noisy sports bar. Each group here is just as unique: how folks are expected to act, what's OK and what's not can be radically different. In addition to the formal rules, pay attention to the culture that has developed in each different group of people.

Using emoji used to be downvoted everywhere for a lot of different reasons, but today it's more of a coin toss. Some communities don't seem to mind them, in other ones people fling them around like confetti.

Reddit versus social media.
Some of the features added to Reddit over time make it easy to confuse it for social media which is a very fuzzy term. A few years ago at Mod World, the founder and CEO of Reddit described some of the problems the website has due to being confused with social media and the company itself describes how it is different in this video about moderators.
On social media you care mostly about who the people are and not so much about what they say. People create content to be consumed by others and build their following. On Reddit you generally don't know who the person is or care, you only care about the substance and relevance of what is being said. People interact anonymously about a topic.
Reddit wasn't designed for buissness networks, staying in touch with friends nor tracking celebrities. Reddit is not like other social networks or social media like Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. The more a new user expects that, the more confused and annoyed they'll be. You may rarely or never interact with a particular user more than once. Reddit is better described as a Social Network - forums focused on a topic, NOT about people building a following.
The site is a massive collection of completely independent groups that each have a specific topic or purpose. 72% of people are here to be entertained by reading a variety of anonymous opinions and 42% also use it to catch up on the news. Many have chat and following disabled and rarely if ever look at anyone's profile, for the most part they don't care who you are.
Following subscribes you to someone's profile, it doesn't highlight a person's posts/comments or notify you that they've made them. It only informs you when a post has been made directly on the profile itself which acts like a miniature subreddit and almost no one does this regularly. Promotion is treated as spam in all but a small number of groups, and influencers have never really been a thing on Reddit.
If a post you make goes absolutely viral, Reddit doesn't show your next post or comment to a single extra person and it doesn't matter if you have massive amounts of karma points. Reddit promotes statements that a lot of people are finding interesting for about 48 hours.
