We’re excited to share the new interactive Reddit exploration tool developed within the SoMe4Dem project!

This browser-based application lets you dive into the dynamics of opinion change on Reddit across 6 subreddits and 20 topics. The tool is grounded in data from a large-scale online experiment and offers three modes of analysis:

• Comment Trees: Navigate full Reddit conversation trees to explore how discussions unfold.
• Participation Patterns: Discover how engagement varies across different attitude profiles.
• Opinion Dynamics: Watch how attitudes shift over time using interactive transition models.

The tool is designed for researchers, journalists, educators, and anyone curious about how opinions evolve in digital spaces.

Developed by the SoMe4Dem team to support transparency, democracy, and data-driven research on digital platforms.
