How to Use Reddit – Complete Beginner's Guide

Reddit is a website and mobile app with over 300 million users, founded back in 2005 as an online discussion board.

It is nicknamed the front page of the internet.

Reddit allows members to post to its platform and each post can be upvoted or downvoted by the Reddit community.

The post with the most upvotes moves to the top of the home page of Reddit.

Unlike other social media platforms, you can be completely anonymous on Reddit. You can join Subreddits which are communities that made up Reddit. Each Subreddit is focused on a specific niche or topic.

When you join a subreddit, you can create your own post and respond to other posts, upvote and downvote posts and comments.

Each Subreddit has it’s own rules and you must follow those rules if you want to post to that subreddit.

  7. Parker Dial on April 1, 2021 at 5:08 am

    Hi, so if I’m starting a podcast and I want to hear from & interact with the audience. Should I ask them to comment on my reddit profile or do I start a community or subreddit? Or is that not how it works haha?

  24. DetonadoGames on April 1, 2021 at 5:28 am

    I created a community within my reddit account, and I would like to change the name of the community, is it possible?



  25. chapstickeaterrr on April 1, 2021 at 5:29 am

    thank you very much!



  26. Leah Harjo on April 1, 2021 at 5:30 am

    I don’t understand something – I am in a few subReddits in which I have seen people post images with their text, yet I cannot do it (option is greyed out just like near the 5:30 mark of this video). Why do you think some people are able to do it? Do people get individual privileges/custom post settings given to them by moderators or something? I am brand new to reddit lol



  27. Howfinity on April 1, 2021 at 5:31 am

  49. Positive Productions on April 1, 2021 at 5:54 am

    Would I go to preferences to fix the way I view the app because anime art I like doesn’t load good on the app and I usually go to the mobile website on my phone but I accidentally hit like a default setting and now it’s showing up like on the computer is there a way I can get the mobile website back in the settings preferences? Thanks



  50. Joschua Hunter on April 1, 2021 at 5:57 am

    please excuse me for asking, but what is the save function for. Nowhere do I find the possibility to display saved content again if it has disappeared from the time scale.
