Reddit has announced a huge update to its platform, now allowing users to dig through comments and find gold in every post.
After the big announcement that it was hacked, Reddit seems to be back on the right track, and is doing business as usual, trying to provide the best possible experience for its users. Although it tends to update the platform quite a bit over the course of a year, today we’re getting a pretty big one, one that’s pretty simple but can also be incredibly effective. From now on, users will be able to search for content through the comments in the subreddit. This means that users will be able to go directly to a post, search and find the answer they are looking for without having to scroll through thousands of potential comments, making it easier and more convenient.
About a year ago, the platform introduced a massive update, allowing users to search for comments on Reddit for the first time. As you can imagine, this was a pretty big deal, as some Reddit threads can get long, especially when some of them have been live and active for more than a few years. Because of its popularity, the company brought it to mobile apps, and now, it’s refined the search even further, giving users the ability to search for comments within a post. The best part is that you can also use this feature to search for usernames as well.
In addition to the new search feature, Reddit also introduced the ability to search for text within images. Moreover, the company has also improved its subreddit search algorithm, providing users with more relevant results than before. Finally, the company has made improvements to the video search experience in the app, giving users better controls when scrolling through video search results. Of course, if you’d like to try this out for yourself, you’re welcome to head over to the Reddit website or download the app for iOS or Android.
