I made a Chrome extension to turn Reddit into a “readable feed” (need feedback)

Sharing Resources/Tips

Body:

I’ve always felt Reddit is great for content, but terrible for actually reading through it.

So I built a small extension to make it feel more like a structured feed:

Core ideas:

  • Treat posts as read/unread
  • Keep a continuous reading flow
  • Let you “pick up where you left off”

Current features:

  • Auto mark posts as read while scrolling
  • Visually fade read posts
  • “Unread only” mode
  • Resume from last position

The goal is simple:
👉 Make Reddit feel less like endless scrolling, more like something you can actually finish.

I’m still early and trying to validate if this is worth building further.

Questions:

  • Is this something you’d use?
  • What’s missing for it to be actually useful?
  • Is “read/unread” even something you care about on Reddit?

Happy to share the extension if anyone wants to try it.

Any feedback (good or bad) would be super helpful 🙏
