DownloaderForReddit VS bulk-downloader-for-reddit

I use, https://github.com/MalloyDelacroix/DownloaderForReddit it's not something I run everyday but maybe every week or two for the subs I'm interested in. Cheers!

At the moment, I’m downloading r/crtgaming and r/vintagecomputing with this https://github.com/MalloyDelacroix/DownloaderForReddit

Downloader for Reddit

DownloaderForReddit is a great tool I’ve used before and love. Also, the time to do it is now because of reddit’s API changes on June 19. Basically they’re switching the API to a paid model where developers will have to pay for usage, and the API will not serve NSFW content even if you do pay.

I got downloader to work https://github.com/MalloyDelacroix/DownloaderForReddit Tip after you have added the sub you want to download from right click on the sub name select settings then click the max button then click save. Default is only 25 post so it will only download a small part of the sub you have do to this for each sub.

Until now, I ran a script every day using bulk-downloader-for-reddit to archive about ten subreddits. It usually took less than an hour each time, even when he had to download video files of a few hundred MB.

Look into bdfr, it's a cli reddit downloader.

I'm with you! I've already mass edited all my comments on both and removed all my submissions on this account, and my other/older one. Just waiting on bdfr to finish pulling all of my saved things for me, then I'll delete both. I may just be a tiny drop in the user ocean, but some of my posts definitely helped others and contributed useful things.

FWIW I just backed up my sub with bulk-downloader-for-reddit : https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/1479c7b/historic_reddit_archives_ongoing_archival_effort/ -> https://github.com/aliparlakci/bulk-downloader-for-reddit

A GDPR export should have all the data, but they’re taking their time processing. An alternative is to use an archiving tool like BDFR. Unfortunately, it’s limited to 1000 posts due to API limitations.

r/DataHoarder was the big reason I started using Reddit regularly. While I don't speak for all of them, many will suggest bdfr or HTTrack for all your scraping needs.

I’m going to delete my Reddit account soon to further the protest, since by this point I don’t use it much anymore. I already backed up my entire post history using this tool since there are some important memories there for me, so I basically have nothing to lose now.
