Extension summary

⭐️ Reddit Publish Date works for articles posted on both new AND old reddit!

Don't be mislead by outdated articles. When you're on reddit, this extension checks links to articles and parses the date they were originally published! When a publish date is found, it is added next to the post on both listing and comments pages. You can customize how you would like publication dates to appear, and can even choose the date format that you prefer.

Reddit Publish Date works in the background and will continuously add publish dates to posts as they're found.

This extension does not collect any personal data about you or your reddit account. Although the extension itself will only run when you're on reddit, it needs to be able to connect to other websites in order to search for publish dates.
