Where SnitchFeed listens, what it collects on each network, how often each one refreshes and what scans cost in credits.
Last updated
SnitchFeed monitors public posts and comments on five networks. Reddit and Bluesky are watched in real time. X (Twitter), LinkedIn and Hacker News are searched on a schedule you set for each listener.
Platforms at a glance
| Platform | What SnitchFeed collects | How often | Track profiles |
|---|---|---|---|
| Posts and comments | Real time | No | |
| Bluesky | Public posts | Real time | No |
| X (Twitter) | Public posts matching your keywords | Every 1 to 24 hours (default 4) | Yes |
| Public posts matching your keywords | Every 1 to 24 hours (default 12) | Yes, people and company pages | |
| Hacker News | Stories and comments matching your keywords | Every 1 to 24 hours (default 6) | No |
Tracked profiles follow specific accounts, so their posts are collected even without a keyword match. See Track profiles.
SnitchFeed does not read private messages or non-public profiles.
What each platform costs
| Platform | Credits per scan |
|---|---|
| No scan cost | |
| Bluesky | No scan cost |
| X (Twitter) | 2 per keyword |
| 4 per search. A keyword with author job title filters runs one search per job title. | |
| Hacker News | 2 per keyword |
Every keyword is scanned separately at the listener's interval. Faster intervals find posts sooner and use more credits. AI scoring costs 0.5 credits per stored mention on every platform, including Reddit and Bluesky.
Set intervals in a listener's Scan Intervals section. See Scans & backfill and Credits.
Choose your platforms
| If you want | Start with |
|---|---|
| Timely replies in fast-moving threads | Reddit, Bluesky and X |
| Longer buying questions from named professionals | LinkedIn. Use author job title filters to narrow results. |
| Feedback on a technical or developer product | Hacker News |
On Reddit you can also include or exclude subreddits, choose posts, comments or both, and decide whether to include NSFW results. These live in the listener's Reddit section.
