More info here if anyone wants to check it out: chauduyphanvu/reddit-markdown (github.com). It's a basic script that does the job. If you have any questions or suggestions, please let me know! Thanks for taking a look.
Ha, nearly a year ago now I started implementing something similar in Python using the excellent PRAW, but it never got finished.
Your approach works great for my use case. I'm combining it with obsidian-local-images to integrate media links. There's probably a more elegant solution, but it works for now.
Nice! And interesting to see Ruby here, I haven't used Ruby in about a decade. I recently made a simple script to convert my saved Reddit posts to Markdown files, but it doesn't also convert comments. https://github.com/tobiasvl/reddit-saved-saver
