FixReddit
Provides improved reddit embeds for services such as Discord.
About
This app is a cloudflare worker service which proxies links for reddit posts and transforms them into Open Graph and Twitter Cards meta data for unfurlers.
The main instance is currently hosted on rxddit.com and also works with old.rxddit.com and www.rxddit.com.
Disclaimer
This service is provided as a best-effort and has no guarantees for availability. I take no responsibility for the uptime or whether it stops working entirely.
I do not plan on maintaining this actively or accepting further changes through pull requests. If I accept something, that does not imply I'm open for any other additions!
Example Embeds
This has specialized handling for various types of reddit posts.
The currently supported routes are:
| Route | Example |
|---|---|
/r/:subreddit/comments/:id/:slug/:comment |
https://rxddit.com/r/shittymoviedetails/comments/160onpq/breaking_actor_from_home_alone_2_arrested_today/jxnkq4g |
/r/:subreddit/comments/:id/:slug |

Or replacing /r/ with /u/ and /user/ for profile posts.
Image Posts
An image post is a reddit post with just an uploaded image. This provides the title and image as a large image card.
Gallery Posts
A gallery post is a reddit post with multiple attached images. Since Discord can only show a up to four images for link embeds, the description includes a tag line that indicates the total number of images.
Video Posts
A video post works exactly like an image post, except for providing a video instead.
YouTube Posts
A YouTube post is a video post that links to a youtube video. The service will instead provide a link to the embed iframe, which can be handled by Discord as a youtube iframe instead. This also includes clips!
Article Posts
Article posts are simply external links, and sometimes provide a thumbnail.
Tweet Posts
Tweet posts are links to tweets, which might include images or videos and text content.
Twitch Posts
Twitch posts are links to twitch clips or VODs.
Poll Posts
Polls including votes (once finished).
