Reader View & Markdown for Reddit

Reader View for Reddit opens the current Reddit post in a dedicated reader page with a clean layout.

Features: Open Reader View

• Click the extension icon, or use the keyboard shortcut (default: Alt+Shift+R).
• Right-click on a Reddit post page → Read in Reader View.
• Right-click a Reddit post link → Open link in Reader View (useful from feeds).

Settings (in Reader View)

• Theme, font, and alignment toggles.
• Open mode: same tab vs new tab.

Markdown Export

• Copy post as Markdown, or post + comments as Markdown.
• Download post Markdown, or post + comments Markdown.
• Comments export uses explicit structural fields (id, p, x, d) and ASCII tree connectors for human + agent readability.

Comments

• Default limit is 100 (configurable up to 500).
• Single toggle Smart thread curation:
  • ON: expands useful deep branches and collapses hard-low-value noise.
  • OFF: depth-only behavior.
• Local search supports free text and author:<name>.
• Bulk controls: Expand all, Collapse all, Reset view.
• Deep loading supports branch/root expansion via Reddit morechildren with bounded safety budgets (requests/nodes/time).
• The footer falls back to limit-step loading and “See more comments on Reddit” when placeholders are unavailable but Reddit still signals more comments.

Notes / Limitations

• Works on Reddit post URLs (/comments/...).
• Initial Reddit listing fetch is still practically limited (~500) and may include "more" placeholders.
• Deep loading is implemented with morechildren, but intentionally bounded to keep casual browsing smooth and responsive.
• Extremely large/locked/removed threads can still require opening the canonical Reddit page for full context.
