Reddit users can now hide posts, comments, and NSFW history
Briefly

Reddit has introduced a privacy feature that enables users to control what content appears on their profiles, offering the ability to hide posts and comments from specific subreddits. While the default setting keeps all activity visible, users can opt to curate their profiles to enhance privacy. New settings include hiding all public interactions or selectively targeting communities, alongside a toggle to manage NSFW content. However, moderators retain access to profiles shortly after user activity, ensuring community standards are upheld. These changes aim to promote user engagement while mitigating potential exposure of personal information.
This update allows users to selectively hide posts and comments from subreddits, enhancing privacy without sacrificing their ability to remain active on the platform.
The default option will keep all public posting history visible unless users choose to curate their profiles, reflecting Reddit's commitment to openness.
Many users create 'throwaway' accounts to avoid identifying details due to the potential exposure of sensitive information through their comments and posts.
New customization options under 'curate your profile' include hiding all public posts, specific subreddit activity, and toggling NSFW visibility to protect user privacy.
