Find on Reddit

Find discussions of the current URL on Reddit

Find on Reddit: Easy Discovery of Reddit Discussion Threads

'Find on Reddit' is a minimal, light-weight, open-source Chrome extension that enhances user experience by finding Reddit submission threads related to the current URL you're visiting. It uses Reddit's public API and provides valuable features such as auto-search, the options of exact or fuzzy search, and a special YouTube ID search feature. Not just that, it allows you to disregard URL's query-string and even sort search results by score, age, or subreddit. Enjoy the freedom to blacklist sites and cache your search results for reducing network usage.

User reviews

So cool to find this after Reddit Check stopped working. It's important for me to track upvotes to my blog posts on Reddit. This does an excellent job.

For the longest time, I was using the Reddit Check extension. However, it doesn’t look like it has updated to Manifest Version 3 yet, and might be disabled soon. I recently found Find on Reddit, and will switch to that to be safe. I do appreciate that both Reddit Check, and Find on Reddit are open source on GitHub.
