📌 Pinned Comment 📌

Features

Pinned Comment 📌 is a fast, reliable, and super simple mod tool that was designed for one purpose: to highlight non-moderator, top-level comments in a minimalistic and unobtrusive way.

Run the app using the three-dot menu or mod shield menu (depending on your platform) and choose the "Pin mod comment" option.

Since Reddit doesn't allow non-moderator comments to be pinned, the app (u/pinned-comment) will recreate the selected comment and pin it to the top of the post.

Update March 2026: Added direct link to the original comment. In the spirit of minimialism, added "see original" in Superscript. See screenshot below.

Example of a Highlighted Comment

📌 Highlighted Comment by u/ExampleUser

Lorem ipsum is placeholder text commonly used in the graphic, print, and publishing industries for previewing layouts and visual mockups. 👍

Pinned Comment Example

The app will unpin existing stickied comments since only one is allowed per post and handles rate limits with clear toasts (e.g., Highlighted comment by [author]!).
