To start making changes to what’s visible, click one of the Update buttons on the right. The Profile and Avatar options lead to options such as your display name and picture on Reddit, the social links you have displayed on your profile, and how you want Reddit to notify you about activity on the platform.
Switch to the Privacy tab on the settings screen and you get some control over how visible your profile is. You have options to hide your profile from searches, to choose whether or not people can follow your activity on Reddit, and to control who can send you chat requests. You can, if you want, turn off chat requests altogether.
To get to the new settings Reddit has just added, click Update next to Curate your profile on your actual profile page, or if you’re already on the main settings screen then open the Profile tab and scroll down to Curate your profile. Note that these options only affect what’s visible on your profile—they don’t affect posts and comments themselves.
You can get to these same settings through the official Reddit app for Android or iOS too. Tap your profile avatar in the top right corner of any screen, then choose Curate your profile to get to the new options, or Settings to configure every aspect of your Reddit experience (including your display name and profile picture).
Curate Your Profile
You can hide activity from some subreddits and not others.David Nield
There are two toggle switches in the curation settings: NSFW, if enabled, will hide all NSFW content from your profile, so that’s anything that you’ve posted or any comments you’ve left on subreddits marked as adult (not suitable for work). It doesn’t cover NSFW subreddits you’ve viewed; this information isn’t shown on your profile.
