Reddit Announces New Features to Make Sharing Content Easier Than Ever for Redditors and Publishers
Reddit has announced new features that make it easier for users to share content from the platform. Redditors can now share text posts through messaging services like iMessage, WhatsApp, Telegram, and Instagram Stories using a new share link preview. This preview includes a visual representation of the content, the subreddit name, total votes, and comments.
In addition, Redditors can share content without leaving the platform through a custom share sheet displaying their most frequently used sharing channels. They can also use a one-tap screenshot-sharing experience that allows them to share content without having to save images to their device. When they take a screenshot, it will generate a link for them to share.
Publishers have access to a new toolbox that enables them to embed Reddit content directly on their platforms. They will have control over the specific height of a post or comment and can showcase the community the content is from, display the total number of upvotes and comments, and add a call to action for others to join the conversation on Reddit.
Overall, these updates make it easier for Redditors and publishers to share Reddit content on and off the platform, bringing the experience more in line with other social platforms. Redditors have a more streamlined way of sharing posts and communities that interest them with others, while publishers can embed Reddit content in blog posts or articles to create richer and more engaging content.
