## What is Reddit?

Reddit is where millions of real people gather to talk, ask and debate across 100,000+ communities, from breaking news and sports to gaming, finance, and every hobby in between. Trending topics, deep-dive discussions and comment threads where real people go deeper than you'd expect on the stuff they love. Whatever you're into, there's a community that gets it. 
What can you do on Reddit? 
Reddit is built around communities, or subreddits, which are forums where real people post, comment, ask questions, and reply. You'll find gaming communities, meme-makers, travel enthusiasts, support groups, AI forums, news followers, artists, sports fans, exciting AMAs , and creators of every kind. 
Everything on Reddit happens inside subreddits — What are Subreddits?  
Communities built around a specific topic, from r/worldnews to r/TodayILearned, where real people post, comment, and discuss. There are more than 100,000 subreddits, so whatever you're into, there are real people already talking about it.
- r/AskReddit, where 50M people are ready to answer anything on your mind — real people who've been there too. 
 - r/sports, the ultimate front-row seat for game-winning plays, daily sports talk, and major league updates 
 - r/funny, full of humor, memes, and content made to make you laugh
 - r/science, for real scientific discussion and news 
- r/gaming, join 46M gamers to swap tips and share what you're playing

What do people use Reddit for? People come to Reddit to: 
- Find communities for everything. 
Breaking news, sports highlights, TV fan theories, open AI discussions, and personalized content. There really is a community for everyone. 
- Get loads of laughs. 
Memes, oddly satisfying clips, and funny videos to help you happily lose track of time.

Got questions? We've got you 
Is Reddit free? Yes. Reddit is free to download and use. Reddit Premium is an optional paid upgrade. 

How do upvotes and karma work? 
Instead of likes and hearts, Reddit runs on upvotes and downvotes. Voting raises or lowers a post's visibility, so relevant, high-quality posts rise to the top while low-effort ones fade out. Voting also affects karma, a running score tied to your posts and comments. Karma doesn't limit what you can do, but more of it can help your posts get noticed, and some communities ask for a little karma before you post or comment to help keep out spam. 
Reddit Premium: Purchase Reddit Premium to enjoy an ads-free experience and access to premium avatar gear, r/lounge, custom app icons, and more. Payment will be charged on a recurring monthly or annual basis to your Apple account. Your monthly or annual Premium subscription will automatically renew unless you cancel at least 24 hours before your subscription ends. Cancel anytime in your device's Account Settings.

### 1/5 — Stoping forcing the app on people

*2026-08-24, version 2026.33.0*

This is so inconvenient when I am searching and I will just not use Reddit anymore before I am forced to use the app exclusively

### 5/5 — Great!

*2026-08-24, version 2026.33.0*

Great!

### 1/5 — Why would anyone use the app?

*2026-08-24, version 2026.33.0*

You can just open the website and refresh the page when the pop up shows up

### 5/5 — Although

*2026-08-24, version 2026.33.0*

I was permanently blocked from photos for a lame reason.  Can I appeal?

### 1/5 — Mostly degenerate people

*2026-08-24, version 2026.33.0*

Reddit is filled with spammers, beggars, scammers, and the most despicable humans on earth.  Can be a good place to find some info but that’s about it

### 1/5 — All woke braindead can go eat horse manure

*2026-08-24, version 2026.33.0*

All yall mfs can decapitate urself n go straight down purgatory theres only two sex two gender,biological obfuscation not gonna work ur delusional fac

### 1/5 — You deserve this

*2026-08-23, version 2026.33.0*

If you block inputs and cover 70% of the screen on safari whilst im browsing reddit, then force me to download the app then you deserve 1 stars or less.

### 1/5 — DATA THIEVES

*2026-08-23, version 2026.33.0*

“Get the app to keep using Reddit”

### 1/5 — Really gonna force me to get the app?

*2026-08-23, version 2026.33.0*

God forbid I just want to briefly look at a post on my phone’s browser.

### 1/5 — Don’t get your hopes up if you run into a problem

*2026-08-23, version 2026.33.0*

I have had a Reddit account for 4 years and I love Reddit. I am active on there daily. I don’t post a lot but I like to keep up with the posts in the communities that I follow. Up until last week. I went onto Reddit as per usual and I saw that I was locked out of my account. They said that my account had been flagged for some kind of unusual activity that I would need to take steps to unlock my account. They had sent an email to my email address, to reset my password to fix the issue. I opened the email message, clicked on the link inside and the link didn’t work. It just gave an error message. I tried resetting my account on the app, Reddit sent me a second password reset email message and that second one gave me the same error message. I tried to contact Reddit through the app telling them what happened and to help me to fix the situation, but it has been a week now and I haven’t heard anything back from them. You would think that a company like Reddit would have people and systems that can actually help with technical difficulties. I am let down, Reddit.
