    A few days after the API changes were announced, a massive number of old-reddit pages were archived. Technically-minded people should have no issue finding the original comments.

      Unfortunately, this comment is only 4 months old, which means it isn’t in the data that is separated nicely in individual subreddit files. Instead it requires parsing through a massive 151GB file. Let’s see how long it takes me to get the edited comments.

        This guy’s taking a screenshot of a thread on r/HomeAssistant looking for advice on how to reverse proxy multiple services at their gateway router so they can access their self-hosted HomeAssistant and NextCloud from different subdomains at the same IP address.

        Pretty sure they’re a technical user.

        But yeah in general it sucks but I’d consider Reddit a dead resource at this point. But, if you do find content there that is useful, REPOST IT HERE. Let’s make this place useful for nontechnical users!
