I used to spend hours per day on Reddit. Now I visit once or twice a month, read-only. My subscription is canceled and all my posts/comments deleted. My “front page of the Internet” is now here.


I felt like the subscription was reasonable for the amount of time I spent on Reddit.


My subscription was going to renew on July 3rd, but I let it expire. That seems like a wiser decision every day.


You might go with PC hardware. Just “hardware” could refer also to nuts, screws, and door hinges.


I stopped my premium membership, but I’ve still got 35800 coins. I don’t know what I’ll do with them.


There definitely were personalities on Reddit, like poem_for_your_sprog, who gained a following. I could see sprog making appreciable money with the proposed system.


You could run it under strace, e.g. strace -f -o shreddit.log shreddit

That’ll show you the system calls it’s making. You might be able to tell if it’s waiting on a network request or local I/O. You can find guides online how to read strace output.


When I used shreddit, I pointed --gdpr-export-dir to the directory where I unpacked the archive from Reddit, not directly to comment.csv.

When the command is working, it’s pretty verbose.


Why do I suspect that, even if one were to spend 8 hours a day on Reddit, making comments that all were gilded, you’d still earn less than minimum wage?


I think you click on the Message button on their profile.


I recently got my export from Reddit and did exactly this. It took shreddit the better part of two days to delete all 18000-odd of my comments.
