Hydrus-Presets-and-Scripts VS instaloader

Hydrus Network has a bunch of downloaders, including Reddit. The Reddit downloader is from 2022, so I don't know if it still works. If you like a challenge you can add your own downloader. Adding .json to the end of Reddit URLs still works. Or you can add Hydrus Companion to your browser and send the images you like to Hydrus.

I think the link on their page, User Presets and Scripts by CuddleBear92, should work.

Each site you scrape requires a "downloader" which is completely configurable via the various modules. Making a downloader can be complex depending on the site, but there are tons available that others have made, see here: https://github.com/CuddleBear92/Hydrus-Presets-and-Scripts

I've been archiving a number of accounts for at least 3 years now. I've mainly used https://instaloader.github.io/. Had no problem initially, but now it's pretty easy for an account I use to be suspended. I tried spacing out my downloads but it didn't help. Any thoughts or tips?

lol thank you, I used a script from github that does it automatically so it only takes a few seconds, I will keep updating this one but if somebody needs it for future archiving I used https://instaloader.github.io/

I can understand it could be doubtful if you only read that, but it uses instaloader for processing that specific data and it is completly open source, so you can check them out aswell if you think there's anything unclear about it. Thanks

I would start with python and a library like this one: https://instaloader.github.io/

This is what I use with great success. https://github.com/instaloader/instaloader
