Reddit for desktop

Reddit for desktop is the same Reddit but for Windows as desktop application

It is a Reddit client for browsing Reddit on Windows.

Reddit is the place where people come together to have the most authentic and interesting conversations on the internet—Where gaming communities, nostalgic internet forums, bloggers, meme-makers, and fandoms mingle alongside video streamers, support groups, news junkies, armchair experts, seasoned professionals, and artists and creators of all types.

With over 100,000 communities about every topic you could think of (and a few you’d probably never think of if it wasn’t for the creativity of strangers on the internet), Reddit is the place where you can dive into anything and connect with people on any topic.

Reddit desktop works on Windos 7, Widows 8, Windows 10, Windows 11.
