RecencyPulse: Social Search Shortcutter

Bypass SEO spam. Instantly search Reddit and TikTok for what real people are saying right now.

Search results have filled up with pages written to rank well rather than to be read. When you want a real opinion — is this thing worth buying, is this neighbourhood any good, did anyone else hit this bug — you end up appending "reddit" to every search out of habit. RecencyPulse turns that habit into one click. Click the icon, type your topic, pick a platform. It opens the search you actually wanted, already filtered for recent discussion. WHAT IT DOES • Reddit — searches the past month only, so you get what people are saying now instead of a highly-ranked thread from years ago. • TikTok — opens current posts for your topic. • Enter key — pick a platform once, then press Enter. It searches the one you selected. • Nothing to configure. No account, no sign-up, no settings screen. WHY THE TIME LIMIT MATTERS An old thread can rank at the top for years. If you're asking about a product, a policy, a version, or a place, a four-year-old answer is often just wrong. RecencyPulse pins Reddit results to the last month by default, which is the filter most people want but rarely bother to set. PRIVACY — THE SHORT VERSION • This extension requests no permissions at all. When you install it, Chrome has nothing to warn you about. • It collects no data. Your search terms go from the box to the search page and nowhere else. • It cannot read the pages you visit, your history, or your accounts. It only opens new tabs. • It contains no analytics, no tracking, and no ads. FREE AND OPEN SOURCE RecencyPulse is free with no paid tier, and the entire source is public — roughly a hundred lines of plain JavaScript that you can read in a couple of minutes. RecencyPulse is an independent project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Reddit or TikTok. It simply opens their public search pages. --- recency-pulse-1.0.1 Added the Share button copies your real listing URL and Review opens your reviews page — both were dead until now.
