When you hide a post or comment, it will no longer be visible to people who visit your profile. However, the content will still be accessible in the original subreddit where it was posted. This means that while your profile can be more curated, your contributions to communities remain visible to others in those spaces.

The new hiding option is available through the three-dot menu on your posts and comments. Reddit says this feature will roll out to all users over the next few weeks. The change is part of Reddit's ongoing efforts to give users more ways to manage their online presence and privacy.

This update does not delete or remove your content from Reddit. It simply hides it from your profile page, making it easier to keep certain posts or comments private from casual profile visitors while still participating in discussions across the site.
