Reddit Check Extension

This extension lets you check whether the current URL you are on has been submitted to reddit. You can jump right into the discussion if the the link has already been submitted. Otherwise a \"Submit this link\" is provided for a link to reddit submission page.

This extension will save you some time if you are about to repost a link. Also this extension is a quick way to check for reddit's comments on a blog or article.

** UPDATE 0.8
1. Cache results to reduce network overhead
2. Bug fixes: Sometimes, clicking the button opened the submission page even when there were results.

** UPDATE 0.7
UI Improvements

** UPDATE 0.6
Added Blacklist on Options page to not run Reddit Check on certain websites. For example, you may not want Reddit-Check to run on your company's internal website or your bank's website. You can add these to your blacklist.
Adding \"bank\" will stop Reddit Check from running on any URL containing \"bank\".

** UPDATE 0.5
1. For youtube, check the url without '&feature=' and '&context='. Also do https + http.

** UPDATE 0.4
1. Better design
2. Show reddit post count on each tab in icon

Thanks for the feedback!

Jeff Kang (ID: 0000002a09eafe8b) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/19/2024 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.

mark ifi (ID: 000000556791ee19) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/07/2021 it's great, I've been using it for a year and it just works well

Ramon (ID: 0000009d7cc2469a) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 03/26/2019 Needs a whitelist only option. I don't need it checking every site. I have specific sites I want it to work on only. I don't wanna have to manually blacklist every other site.

Andrew Meyer (ID: 0000007f0244dece) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 04/22/2018 CAUTION: This extension sends all your browser history to Reddit. Take note: In order to display that little badge next to the extension showing how many Reddit posts exist for the current page, this extension searches Reddit for for the URL of the current page. Since it does this for _every_ page you visit, Reddit is getting a complete copy of your browser history in realtime. This isn't necessarily malicious behavior, since it would be very difficult to provide that feature without doing this, but I feel this is something that's important for users to be aware of.

Matthew Edmundson (ID: 000000dba1e4c599) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 10/28/2017 Uses a lot of RAM for such a simple extension. There's a bug where it'll be blank for various sites, with only the close x showing.
