    I think I have about 4000 comments on reddit. I’ve stopped using reddit last year in summer when they pushed their fucking API changes; have been on Lemmy since and never looked back. However, I still have the account, because sometimes I had really nice conversations, which I would like to look up once in a while, or to pick up something which I wanted to keep for another time, like a bookmark basically. I’m also one of the people who sometimes write really really much; walls of text as a product of a lot of effort I put in. It would be sad to see it all go away. Then again, fuck reddirt and it’s management.

    Is there a tool to back up my comments (or also the corresponding threads)? After that I’ll gladly use the tool provided by luddite.

      You can request your data from Reddit and they’ll send you a CSV file of all your activity. Takes a couple weeks though.

      You can request to download your data from reddit, and they’ll provide it to you. I did that and made my comments available on github.
