Shows Reddit stats on every webpage indicating how many up-votes that webpage has received. Reddit Upvotes Bar Reddit Upvotes Bar

Shows a stats bar on the bottom right of every webpage showing how many Reddit up-votes that that webpage has received (if any). The stats bar won't show on Reddit's own webpages.

This extension is NOT affiliated with Reddit, but does use their Reddit API.

  • The left number is the number of up-votes for that webpage, the right number is the number of user comments.
  • The stats bar is color coded. For posts with over 10,000 shares it appears in vibrant red. For posts with less than 1,000 shares it appears in a transparent grey color.
  • By default, the stats bar only loads when you have scrolled the webpage by more than 500 pixels.
  • By default, the stats bar only loads after 4 seconds in case the webpage was loaded by mistake.
  • By default, the subreddit name is shown in the stats bar and can be changed to show the age of the post.
  • By default, the stats bar only loads if the "path" portion of the URL is longer than 4 characters. For example, if the URL is "www.yahoo.com/search?q=hello", only the "/search" portion of the URL is counted and here it is 7 characters long. This is so that the stats bar is only loaded for webpages with genuine content and not for top-level webpages.
  • For your privacy, the "query" part of the URL is not sent to Reddit. i.e. the part after the "?" and "#". For example, if the URL is "www.yahoo.com/search?q=hello", the "q=hello" part is not sent to Reddit.
  • Clicking on the link in the stats bar will load the corresponding Reddit page.
  • Clicking elsewhere on the stats bar will hide it.
  • The up-vote count is obtained through the Reddit API. I am not responsible for the accuracy of the results.
