Hey folks - dropping by to share a few updates to profile pages that will be incoming over the next week.
TL;DR We’re making some quality improvements so that Redditors can more easily access the content created through the history of an account via the profile page.
Many of you experienced Redditors may know this already - lists on Reddit are typically capped at 1,000 pieces of content. The posts and comments tabs on your profile showcase “lists” of up to 1,000 pieces of content. Any comments or posts beyond that limit would generally not be shown on those tabs, though they would still be viewable when linked directly or within communities.
Historically this helped reduce load times and improve efficiency across the site. We’ve since made improvements that have enabled us to display more posts and comments in users’ profile pages without this limit.
With that said, there are some unique side effects that may pop up due to this change, so we wanted to give you all an early heads-up to the following:
You may experience longer load times when viewing some high-traffic or prolific profile pages.
You may start seeing content in the posts and comments tabs on your profile page that did not previously load and display. If you prefer, you can delete that content by following these directions: Posts | Comments.
