Reddit Terminal Viewer (RTV) is a text-based interface (TUI) for browsing and interacting with Reddit from the terminal, built in Python with curses. The project is no longer maintained and its development has been shut down.

Use cases

  • browse reddit from the terminal
  • read reddit comments in a tui
  • vote and reply to reddit posts from the command line
  • navigate subreddits with vim keybindings
  • open reddit media links with mailcap

When to choose

  • you want a keyboard-driven, vim-style Reddit client in a POSIX terminal
  • you need a lightweight curses-based Reddit viewer on Linux or macOS

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained or actively supported client
  • you are on Windows, which is not supported
  • you need OAuth features that may break as Reddit's API evolves
