Reddit Image Galleries are enabled for all communities that opt-in, as community moderators will need to first turn on the feature. “We’re excited about products like Image Galleries because they give Redditors more ways to engage and share content with their favorite community, while also making communities more vibrant and exciting.” “Image Galleries fulfill a longstanding community request ever since we added support for image uploads back in 2016,” explains Reddit Senior Product Manager, Tyler Swartz. Furthermore, media organizations and partners now have one more way to engage communities on the platform. Image Galleries is an important new feature as it gives Redditors more ways to enjoy content on the platform and significantly reduces the steps necessary to add more images to posts. Now, they are able to include up to 20 images or GIFs in their posts, and they will soon be able to do so with videos as well, as Reddit says this feature will also be available “soon after launch.” Related | Reddit Launches 12-Week Advertising School On r/Advertising DIY and food communities want to be able to give step-by-step instructions in a single post with multiple pictures, captions, and links to recipes and tutorials.

Reddit announced the launch of Image Galleries – a new post type that lets users include up to 20 images and GIFs in a single post.
