export-saved-reddit VS bulk-downloader-for-reddit

If you would like to only back up your "Saved" posts, this script may work. But it is not without issues. Please use Github Issues to report any bugs.

While we can't really predict the evolution of Reddit apps, in the light of recent API charge issues, I think it is safer to update - one more time - all the accounts one has ever used (active or suspended), with saved Reddit links ("Reddit bookmarks") with the likes of export-saved-reddit [1]. Others may have better solutions, but this one - for me - worked well for many years, and still does.

I've not done any code review, but https://github.com/csu/export-saved-reddit seemed to work

if you can navigate command lines and use python scripts, I found this one to be pretty decent.

J'ai jeté un oeil vite et trouvé un thread qui parlait de Reddit Manager, et un autre sur Github. Dans les deux cas ça parle de l'export, mais je vois pas de référence à l'import.

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.
