Summary

Analyze keywords

This extension was created in response to the recent Reddit mass voting and user manipulation investigation covered by Forbes and UK's Point YouTube channel. With one click, you can see detailed insight on the top 6 subreddits a user posts in and more. Theoretically, this should help weed out "shills" and astroturfer accounts from genuine Redditors.
