Reddit Updates Profiles Wtih New Visiblity Controls
Reddit updated user profile visibility controls. Under “Content and Activity Settings,” users can choose to show everything, only specific content, or hide it all.
In addition, profiles now feature a revamped summary that includes karma, post counts, account age, and active communities with each tailored to reflect a user’s chosen visibility settings.
Why It Matters: These updates give users more control over their privacy, which could encourage greater participation, especially from those hesitant to post due to concerns about their digital footprint. At the same time, profile visitors benefit from a more informative and relevant snapshot of each user, which improves transparency and trust in community interactions.
