Reddit keyword alerts in Discord

Reddit-to-Discord recipes are everywhere: an IFTTT applet, an RSS bot, a five-year-old npm package. They all forward. FishOut searches Reddit for your keywords and posts only what clears your floor, with the Reply call in the headline so your community knows which threads want an answer.

Checked hourly, or every 15 minutes for a Fast keyword on Plus and up. Discord alerts are on every plan.

[03] KEYWORDS THAT WORK HERE/ REDDIT

For Reddit, into Discord

More keyword shapes are on monitoring Reddit.

Competitor name + “renewal” or “price increase”

Pricing posts are where people are actively choosing, and community members love to weigh in.

Your name + “discord” or “community”

People looking for your community on Reddit are a thread worth answering with a link to it.

A floor of 75

A Discord community channel tolerates less noise than a work channel. 75 keeps it to threads worth reading together.

Embeds, not walls of text

The headline sits above an embed whose title links to the post. Discord caps embeds at 6,000 characters; a FishOut embed is a few hundred, because it never carries the post body.
[05] A BUSY DAY/ DIGEST

When Reddit gets loud

When a competitor raises prices, r/SaaS and r/smallbusiness light up in the same afternoon. The digest gathers them into one embed, best first.
