Archiving Reddit without using an app that relies on their API
1 project | /r/DataHoarder | 1 Jun 2023

Seeing that the move to make the Reddit API cost cash, I'm afraid that something like this won't function when I'm done seeing what I want to archive from this place. So, I'm asking to see what options from Website Mirroring tools I got, and how to set them up to fetch media files as well, other than just the website's layout and such.

Solution for mass download of GDPR saved_posts.csv?
1 project | /r/DataHoarder | 24 Apr 2023

I'm also in a same position, currently using this https://github.com/josephrcox/easy-reddit-downloader . It does the job fairly well, but it cannot download videos with audio because there's some issue. Everything else works really well. You can place the links from the CSV file in a text document it generates (more detail here: https://github.com/josephrcox/easy-reddit-downloader#downloading-from-a-post-list-download-specific-urls ).
Best way to download posts from art-focused subreddits?
2 projects | /r/DataHoarder | 9 Feb 2023

I've been using easy-reddit-downloader. It'll grab the ones hosted on reddit. Sites it doesn't handle get saved as URL links, so I wrote a wrapper script that attempts to use gallery-dl & yt-dlp to try to download them.
Downloading all 'Saved' reddit images/gifs/videos?
1 project | /r/DataHoarder | 25 Jan 2023

I'm currently doing something similar. If you can, request a data package from reddit from your entire stay on the platform or a specific period. After that, open the saved_posts.csv file (If I recall that's whats it is called) and copy the links from the posts you want to download (Note: you might have posts which may be deleted, best thing for those is to manually download them by searching the links in Internet's Archive WayBack Machine tool). Then, download this app https://github.com/josephrcox/easy-reddit-downloader and follow the setup instructions. When its done setting up, follow these instructions https://github.com/josephrcox/easy-reddit-downloader#downloading-from-a-post-list-download-specific-urls and you should be on your way. It might take a while if you got many posts that you want to archive.
