Reddit Watch is a free tool for monitoring Reddit for posts containing certain
keyword(s) in near real-time.

I built a limited version of this application for my own personal use some time
ago, but I have now opened it up for anyone to use within reasonable limits.


WHY?

One use of this is to filter down Reddit discussions to a few specific topics
that you are interested in.

Another potentially effective use of this is for influencing Reddit discussions
in a certain way.
By upvoting or commenting on certain threads as soon as they are posted, you
have a much better chance for those threads to do well - especially if you have
enough people participating in this. In Reddit's algorithm, earlier votes are
worth more, and that is because early and positive "upvote momentum" is rewarded
more. Same with downvotes. That is why downvoting a post that's already at the
top of a particular subreddit will have little effect, where as downvoting a
post that just got posted will mean a lot more.

It works the same with comments where commenting on a thread that already has
hundreds of comments makes it very unlikely that your comment will gather enough
momentum to move to the top or be seen by a great number of people.

API - !! NEW UPDATES !!

We use the main api.proxynova.com endpoint. Go to main ProxyNova website for
documentation. The old API that was previously hosted on api.unblockvideos.com
will be retiring soon.


TO-DO LIST...

 * Better design...
 * Improved support across devices - it's not too bad at the moment, but the app
   still looks much better on desktop than mobile.
 * More notification "channels" - get notified through email or slack
 * Would be useful to have an ability to track specific reddit users, and get
   notified whenever they post or make a comment anywhere on reddit.

has ever worked at reddit. All of reddit's data is gathered using official
Reddit API.
