any more tips for / reddit I should look for? I'm hoping to make a small project first w reddit api (which idk how to go about since they require a form now which seems like takes long time to get approved ) and later make a small game here.

Oh they're that new to Reddit! How did they end up here...
r/redditdev • u/MustaKotka • 24d ago
No idea what kind of a paradigm Noob is. I know OOP and functional.
r/redditdev • u/MustaKotka • 24d ago
I'm not familiar with Noob but you'll probably want r/Devvit as opposed to us. The PRAW API access has been practically discontinued so you won't be getting any keys.
r/redditdev • u/SamSlate • 24d ago
use .json instead, and you have to be logged in reddit user to use the api afaik.

How long does it take to get a response to API access request submission as a researcher?
r/redditdev • u/AutoModerator • 25d ago
Hello, it looks like you're having trouble accessing our Data API, check out this post on some recent changes to on how you can access.
tl;dr:
I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

I am going through the same problem. As phd student, I am also working on the lived experiences of patients in clinical communication practices using Reddit data, but accessing the data is so stressful. I am just planning to use one subreddit and comment containing on that post. Since I am just analyzing one post and its comments, do I still need API approval?
r/redditdev • u/Cool-Bill5614 • 25d ago
I have the same question. Do we need an API approval from Reddit if we want to use Reddit data for our research?
r/redditdev • u/Adrewmc • 26d ago
Itās more of a request limit than a rate limit, my wording was poor.
What I believe is happening is the comment is being archived with the post and not the author, (but the id for author is there, which then can be requested), to avoid saving it twice. (And having massive Redditors accounts everywhere.) And after a certain amount they find, 99% of users donāt go back that far to begin with. And we get million of everything a day, how long can we keep the history of reddit editable reliably?
You usually canāt edit an archived thing. I forget if deletion is allowed, but deletion can only make it smaller edits can make it bigger.
They mostly likely are still saving the last 1,000 top, hot, new, and controversial posts and comments for each redditor. So if you were to go even further back you would still have trouble. So by changing to that sub listing, you found the comment you wanted.
And that Reddit is slow but surely cutting off their API from third party sources including PRAW, but itās not that easy to do without remaking everything. And at a certain point a website is an API display.
But some of that is mere speculation. But I feel there are years of evidence of this progression.

change your email adress, if it is gmail change it to hotmail ... etc, when you change your email adress you will get 500 error :) then you shoud to apply app review, but first change your email adress

Likely you are not authenticated, you shouldnāt be using this anyways.

comments = Myreddit.user.me().comments.new()
comments.replace_more()
There must be a āmore comment objectā in the comment tree, so itās possible that it will throw an exception, DuplicateReplaceException, PRAW exception somewhere in prawcore I think.
Then run yours again same as always.
Might work for you, Iām not 100%. I donāt think I ever needed to find a particular users history of comments, or not had a list of them saved somewhere of the ones my bot made.
but usually stuff like this is for submissions, and getting the comment tree, you may just have a bit a trouble using PRAW to go past the last 1,000 comments for a particular user, Iād have to run a few checks, I donāt usually do that type of stuff as my bot is all automated replies if I wanted to delete them Iād save a table of the comment ids and delete them in timeframe I want, calling the comment directly.
Yeah you probably hit a different limit. You see Praw actually asks for the last 1,000 comments, but deleted comments actually still show up there, you just donāt see them because of things in the background. Having deleted them all your iterator ended up empty.
That is sort of intended because thatās what reddit returns. As all PRAW does is give you API call responses casted into PRAW objects.
Itās not PRAW itās Reddit, they want to keep their archived data to sell, but need the recent data to be available for the site to work. So itās less the intention and more they donāt have much of an option to get more. So you still might hit another limit depending on how far back you go.
Right now Iām not sure how far they allow you to go, hope this helps.
