Reddit now lets you hide content, like posts and comments, from your userprofile
Reddit has launched a new 'Content and Activity' feature that allows users to curate what appears on their profiles, including options to hide all posts and comments or selectively choose which community content to display. This aims to enhance user privacy and potentially increase engagement on sensitive topics, although moderators can still access user history for 28 days.
