Enter your target subreddit in the input configuration 2. Set an optional limit for the number of posts & comments to analyze per subreddit 3. Run the actor and get your data in clean JSON format ## 📈 Benefits - Save hours of manual data collection - Get structured, ready-to-analyze data - Identify key community members effortlessly - Make data-driven decisions for your Reddit strategy ## ⚙️ Workings All most recent posts & comments of a subreddit are scraped. If you only want to scrape posts or comments, set the maxPosts or maxComments to 0. Only unique users are collected. If you set fetchDetails to true, the actor will also fetch additional details for each user: number of posts, comments, first and last activity within the subreddit. This requires two additional scrape requests for each individual user, which will slow down the scraping process significantly. It is recommended to set fetchDetails to false unless you really need the additional details. Tip: Set the posts & comments per subreddit limit high. This will ensure that you get a larger list of users and that the results are more accurate. You are only billed for the number of unique users, so no additional cost is incurred when scraping the same user multiple times. ## 🔒 Privacy & Compliance This scraper only collects publicly available data. ## 💪 Why Choose This Scraper? - Reliable: Built on Apify's robust infrastructure - Scalable: Handle multiple subreddits efficiently - Up-to-date: Maintained and updated regularly - Support: Backed by Apify's excellent customer service Ready to unlock valuable Reddit user insights?
