Radle is a free and open-source WordPress Reddit plugin that helps site owners automatically share their posts to Reddit communities and bring Reddit discussions back into WordPress.
As of version 2.0, every feature that was previously part of Radle Pro is now built into the free plugin — no license, no account gate, no upsell.
