Reddit: expand all comments

Automatically expands collapsed comment branches so the entire discussion thread is visible at once.

Code to copy

// Expand collapsed comment branches so the whole thread is visible
function expandAll() {
  document.querySelectorAll('shreddit-comment[collapsed]').forEach(function (c) {
    if (!c.dataset.jzExpanded) {
      c.removeAttribute('collapsed');
      c.dataset.jzExpanded = '1';
    }
  });
}
expandAll();
const obs = new MutationObserver(function () {
  window.requestAnimationFrame(expandAll);
});
obs.observe(document.documentElement, { childList: true, subtree: true });

Does this example work?

Snippets are useless without somewhere to paste them.

JustZix takes 2 minutes to install and runs your code on every matching page. No account, no payment.
