![]() | Hello hello, Weโve made some changes to Multireddits that weโd like to share with you. Also, a fun contest! Letโs get to it... Whatโs NewNew Name: Multireddits โ Custom Feeds Multireddits have been around a long time. They are a way for redditors to curate communities into shareable feeds and can help newer redditors discover more communities. However, they havenโt been widely adopted. In order to prevent confusion, we will be changing the name from Multireddits to โCustom Feeds.โ Sometimes simple is better. More Support Weโve added more support to new Reddit and our iOS app for Custom Feeds. Now, redditors can create a new Custom Feed, add or remove communities from them, duplicate other redditors' feeds, and change the privacy settings. Previously, this was something you could only do from old Reddit. Weโll be adding support for Custom Feeds on Android in the near future. iOS Screenshot New Follow Functionality You can now follow another redditorโs Custom Feed (as long as itโs set to Public). This means that when you follow a feed it will appear on your list of Custom Feed subscriptions and when that redditor adds another community to the feed, youโll see that update the next time you open the feed. This will be super useful for communities that want to keep a running feed of related communities, or for folks that have a specific ever-evolving interest that they want to share with others. Follow on new Reddit Improved Sharing Weโve made some tweaks to the URL structure of your Custom Feed so that itโs easier to share with others. No more accidentally sharing a URL with /me/ in it that wonโt work for anyone else. Weโve also created a new privacy category for public custom feeds, Hidden, that can be accessed by anyone with the link but will not show up on your profile. Spaces You can now have spaces in the name of your Custom Feed. Enough said. Mix and Match Follow a mix of communities and profiles. Coming Soon In the near future communities will be able to create Custom Feeds that are owned by the community, rather than an individual. This will also support turning the Related Communities sidebar widget into a feed. We are also going to be building ways for you to see popular and trending Custom Feeds. The ContestWe are investing in this feature because we believe redditors are great at finding niche communities and we want more people to discover all of the unique communities that we have. Now for the gold part! We are holding a one-week contest for the best Custom Feeds created by redditors. The winners will receive Coins and bragging rights. To submit your Custom Feed, reply to the top-level sticky comment with a link to your Custom Feed and the category it best fits under. It must be public. Please only submit one feed per category. Here are the categories that we will award winners from:
Weโll be picking winners based on a combination of the number of followers the feed has, how many upvotes their comment entry has, and our internal voting. Winners will be announced in a follow-up post next week. Here are some custom feeds to get you started (many of which are mine):
