Find Reddit threads by recent activity
Search across all time by default. When you select a date window, an older post can still qualify if a captured comment falls inside it.
What counts as recent activity
- A post published inside the requested window qualifies on its post date.
- An older post can qualify on the date of a captured reply, so a discussion can still be useful when people have recently returned to it.
- Omit the date window for research where older discussions are useful, such as collecting examples of recurring customer questions.
For a monitoring pass, ask for a 14-day activity window. If you only need links, request that comment text be omitted.
Improvements
- An undated search can return links without opening threads when comments are omitted.
Fixes
- Verify dates on candidate threads when DuckDuckGo supplies the discovery results.
- Keep a thread eligible when a captured comment falls inside the window, even if the original post is older.
MCP server
- Dated searches verify activity even when the response omits comment text.
SDK
- The public client uses the updated contract for undated links and verified post or comment activity.
