I keep reading that former users of reddit are scrubbing their old accounts out of spite. So I wanted to know- What is it? Why are people doing it? Does it actually hurt reddit? What are some good bots that will do it for you?

    If you only need json, I recently wrote a userscript that exports saved posts and comments for myself. Please report back if it works/you decide to use it :)

    (It works by scraping the pages, so its gonna take some time) (It also has horrible ui, sorry) https://github.com/hyperacuity/userscripts

        You could actually still use this (on Android), because you can visit Reddit in the browser, and Firefox allows you to use an addon called “Tampermonkey”.

        But then I don’t know if the json file would be of any use to you, probably not :/
