A Python command-line tool (bdfr) that bulk-downloads and archives Reddit submissions and their media from subreddits, multireddits, users, or individual links. It supports download, archive, and clone modes with configurable file naming and organization schemes.

Use cases

  • download all posts from a subreddit
  • archive my saved reddit posts before deleting my account
  • bulk download reddit user's submissions
  • scrape reddit for research data
  • backup reddit media files locally
  • crawl reddit comments and metadata

When to choose

  • you need scripted, repeatable Reddit archiving via CLI
  • you want to download media from multiple Reddit sources with custom naming schemes
  • you need to preserve Reddit data for research or personal backup

When to avoid

  • you need a GUI-based downloader
  • you want real-time Reddit streaming rather than bulk retrieval
  • you need a general-purpose web scraper beyond Reddit
