Get Sync for Reddit

Image
Reddit  is one of the most prevalent social news platforms used for sharing links and information. It lets users  upvote  or  downvote any content submitted by other users. Reddit features ‘ Karma ’ points so as to avoid the spammers from posting the links randomly. There is a limit of posting links on the site, so if you are a spammer and looking for some platform to copy-paste your links randomly, Reddit isn’t for you. The platform is quite strict to the spammers and takes no time to delete the spam content. A user gets ‘Karma’ points when someone comments on their link or upvote it. While it is a very popular social news platform, people are still not getting the best out of it. In this post, we will learn about some very interesting and helpful  Reddit tips and tricks which will help you make the best out of it.

Create An Account And Subscribe

Probably the first thing you should do if you’re serious about getting into Reddit is to  get an account . Not only will you be able to  participate in the comments sections , you can  subscribe to the different subreddits  you find intruiging, so that they will appear on the front page. Plus, you will be able to unsubscribe from any of the default subreddits that you may not like, so their posts will no longer appear on your page.

Combine Subreddits Into A Multireddit

Reddit allows you to create what is called a  multireddit , a way for you to group together different subreddits to view within a page. This can be incredibly useful if you want to group together related subreddits into one page instead of going to each one individually. To create a  multireddit , you have to be logged in. Go to your front page and press  create  located on the left side of the page, under  multireddits . Name it and you will be taken to a page where you can add in the subreddits. You can explore other multireddits people create by pressing  explore multis.

Use Mobile Site for Smartphones

When on a smartphone, it is preferable if you use an app to browse Reddit, as the main site isn’t well suited for mobile. But did you know that they actually have a  mobile version of the site?  To turn the regular site into a mobile one, add in an  i  on the URL,  i.reddit.com.  This will format the site into one that is suited for smartphone browsing.

Create & use MultiReddits

You can club similar Subreddits and create a MultiReddit and add the SubReddits into it so as to avoid the repetitive posts and Subreddits. To create a MultiReddit, login to your Reddit account and go to the left panel of settings, click on  Create  and follow the instructions. While you create a MutliReddit, make sure you give it a suitable name according to the genre.

Random Button

Have you ever used the Random button on the top menu ribbon? Clicking on the Random button shows the random Subreddits used by various users. So, if you are bored of the usual and common SubReddits shown on the home page, keep clicking the Random button. One-click might take you to the Subreddit  CampfireCooking  and the next click may randomly open the Subreddit  JavaScript. 

Imgur Has Subreddits

Image
Imgur is an incredibly popular image sharing site on Reddit, with Redditors uploading their photos to it and then sharing it on the site to reap in the upvotes. The majority of pictures on Reddit are hosted on Imgur. If you want to skip Reddit and just get to the pictures a la 9GAG, replace  reddit  in the URL with  imgur , example  reddit.com/r/pics becomes imgur.com/r/pics . This will show you most of the pictures that are posted to a particular subreddit.
