Export/Download/Archive Reddit

Many of us use Reddit and save a lot of content. But you should know that Reddit has a limit of 1000 for your saved content. After you pass this limit, you will lose your earliest saved posts. So this project aims to download your Reddit saved posts, and also sort them by subreddits.

Features

• Download Reddit saved posts
• View by categories (subreddits)
• Running again will download newly saved posts
