powershell VS New-SubredditHTMLArchive

When I tested this script years ago, it generated more accurate licensed software install data, than even the SCCM database via cmdlets: https://github.com/mbarr564/powershell/blob/master/Export-MatchingSoftware.ps1

Here is link number 1 - Previous text "url"

I wrote this registry uninstall path collection script for a site software inventory project (the SCCM DB wasn't providing accurate results). You may find chunks of it useful (the foreach loops that populate $installedProducts) for lifting the needed uninstall path key values into a PowerShell friendly PSCustomObject array. Honestly though, this task could also be a two line batch script.

The New-SubredditHTMLArchive script used to be pointed at TestSubredditA, but reddit banned that subreddit in 2023 because it's unmoderated. So here is brand new 'TestSubredditC', with this one post as content, to validate that the BDFR and BDFR-HTML Python modules are working, after automatic installation.

Here's the current plan to grow this community: 1) Archive source subreddits 2) Run selection script on retrieved JSON comment data 3) Tune script until it aligns with human moderator judgement 4) Send out invites to next monthly batch of selected users

For example, I recently wrote this subreddit archival script, that can download 10s of GBs of internet media, when provided with only a simple list of subreddit names. The user doesn't need to know how the reddit API or BDFR works, only that the tool delivers, when they copy and paste from the readme.

Thanks I hadn't seen that before.. that needs its own post, especially so tools like BDFR can make offline backups. I recently finished a very easy to use subreddit cloning script, that will also download video links as MP4 files: https://github.com/mbarr564/New-SubredditHTMLArchive

Now organized into it's own repository with usage and screenshots.
