Can they edit post titles yet or is that too advanced for them?

Not a mod, and not using the default app either. So probably this won’t affect me too much.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


The company’s first add-ons, available to a small number of subreddits and only to mods, will include tools for mods to more easily monitor and remove comment threads; ban spammers and remove their content; and for sports-focused subreddits, create posts that are live scoreboards, spokesperson Courtney Geesey-Dorr tells The Verge.

At the time, Reddit opened up a waitlist for interested developers, and although the platform is still in closed beta, Geesey-Dorr says a “handful” of moderators and bot developers have already built moderation tools that are being tested in select communities.

The company is also prototyping other add-ons, like variations on polls and countdown timer posts, that it will “likely” start testing over “the next couple months,” according to Geesey-Dorr.

Reddit’s first Developer Platform add-ons are arriving near the end of what’s been a tumultuous year for the company.

Earlier this year, after it became clear that the costs of the company’s usage-based API pricing would be too expensive for the developers of some third-party apps, many users protested and some subreddits went dark.

It also sunset its blockchain-based Community Points product, though it’s still investing in its NFT avatars.
