Profile Unhider

Profile Unhider reveals publicly indexed posts and comments for Reddit users who have set their profile to hidden.

When you visit a hidden Reddit profile, the extension automatically detects it and shows a "Reveal activity" button. Click it to instantly surface that user's posts and comments from Reddit's public search index — no login, no account, no setup required.

v3.1
- Added a refresh button on popup for slow polling

v3.0
- Sort bar — sort posts and comments by New, Hot, Top, or Relevance directly in the panel
- Time filter — when sorting by Top, filter by Today, This week, This month, This year, or All time
- Popup revamp — new dark design with orange neon glow, cleaner layout
- Reset stats — clear your profiles revealed and posts surfaced counters from the popup
- Onboarding — new users are automatically directed to a welcome page with setup instructions
- Thumbnail fix — images with encoded URLs now load correctly

v2.4 — Added popup with extension status, on/off toggle, and stats (profiles revealed, posts surfaced). Added fallback banner that appears when detection doesn't trigger — with a refresh button and rotating messages. Fixed duplicate counting on same-session refreshes.

HOW IT WORKS

Reddit indexes posts and comments made in public subreddits even when a user has set their profile to hidden. Profile Unhider queries Reddit's own public search API to retrieve this content and displays it inline on the profile page. Nothing is stored, nothing is tracked.
