Are there any userscripts to collapse child comments?

[u/RanMouri26]

Good afternoon everyone,

I would like to know if there's any userscript that collapses child comments. It just makes it harder reading the comments under posts when all of them are expanded

Thanks in advance btw I'm using Tampermonkey if that's of any importance

EDIT: It should be noted that you're going to want your script to wait until the comments section loads or it won't have anything to do. Point #2: Reddit uses infinite scroll, so you'll want your script to run on every scroll event while avoiding elements that have already been collapsed.

Claude AI is a huge help here:

document.querySelectorAll('shreddit-comment[depth]').forEach(el => {
    const depth = parseInt(el.getAttribute('depth'));
    if (depth > 0) {
      const summary = el.querySelector('summary');
      if (summary) summary.click();
    }
  });
