When the browser initally mounts, the most popular post on reddit will be rendered, you can view each post and its comment section by clicking on the post. You can view comments and replies for each post aslong as there is a comment. You can also sort through these popularpost by selecting the Hot, New, or Top tabs. You can access a subreddit by either clicking on the subreddit name on the post or by searching for it in the search bar and selecting the communities tab. You can additionally search for post aswell and there is multiple sorting options for them located in a drop down menu. This website is responsive and works well on mobile aswell as desktop.
