saveddit VS bulk-downloader-for-reddit

If you're not afraid of the command line, there are many programs written in python that download media and comments of users or subreddits. Here's an example, keep in mind that the setup process is a bit long although well explained.

Hey, just so you know your reddit client information is still publicly accessible here. You need to fully purge the history for that file until this point.

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.
