Reddit Facilitates the Sharing And Viewing of Linked Posts On Social Media Networks

Reddit has announced that it would be introducing fresh features to facilitate the simple sharing of posts on other social networking networks. These include an enhanced “shared link” preview for text posts sent through chat services, new Instagram Stories sharing, one-tap screenshot sharing, and more. The enhancements follow other user-friendly additions such as a revamped UI, enhanced comment searching, and more.

Previously, posting a Reddit article via a messaging tool like WhatsApp required the receiver to click the link to find out what was going on. You now see a visual preview of the content, as well as the subreddit name, total upvotes, and comments.

A further addition is the option to publish Reddit material directly to Instagram stories without having to screenshot or download it to your phone. And, similar to Google Photos, a new unique “share sheet” appears, displaying your most-used social networks, allowing you to instantly publish without leaving the Reddit app. A one-tap screenshot sharing experience is also available, allowing you to share material without downloading photographs to your smartphone. Rather than merely a snapshot, this gives a direct link to the content.

Finally, Reddit has launched a new embedding toolbox that allows embedding tweets in articles or CMS platforms like WordPress easier. Again, this allows users to not only display Reddit material on a website, but also directly connect to it. This brings it in step with other social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, which have had the capacity for a long time.

Other upgrades to the app and websites include the ability to search within post comments, the inclusion of additional text browsing feeds such as Read and Watch, a revamped, decluttered UI, and more. Simultaneously, Reddit just made API access a premium option, allegedly to address AI training problems.
