Since launching Chatdog on Product Hunt earlier this year, a popular feature request has been to add subreddit chats, and here it is!
Reddit is a popular news aggregator website ranked #3 in the U.S. and #6 in the world. Subreddits are sub-communities within reddit dedicated to different topics and moderated by users.
What's New
Here’s what’s new:
- Visitors are automatically added to the rooms 'Lobby' and 'r/rarepuppers'.
- Subreddit rooms with 'r/' in the URL include a feed with posts and a condensed chat.
- Clicking or tapping on reddit posts or images will open the thread on reddit.
- Type `/shake` into chat... 😆
r/rarepuppers and r/pics are fun subreddits.
Previous Releases
