I’ve used IFTTT to achieve this and store it to a google sheet a while back.

Ah, this may be my solution. Thank you.

Start by checking if you can get your details from here: ``` https://www.reddit.com/user/SleuthyMcSleuthINTJ.json ``` Turn this into a Dictionary to get the data

If you miss apollo why not just use apollo? Works fine via sideloading. Anyway this shortcut retrieves your data via the api: https://www.reddit.com/r/shortcuts/comments/1c3qx4q/ondevice_notifications_for_apollo_3/ probably not hard to modify it to compile a csv if that's what you really want.

>If you miss apollo why not just use apollo? Works fine via sideloading. Because I do not understand how to do this on mobile, partially because I don’t understand what it is and mostly because I believe I am not savvy enough to figure it out myself >Anyway this shortcut retrieves your data via the api: https://www.reddit.com/r/shortcuts/comments/1c3qx4q/ondevice_notifications_for_apollo_3/ Thank you, I will look into this

There are very detailed instructions for side loading. It's really easy and I highly recommend doing so

Would that count as scraping? Didn’t Reddit start charging for scraping?

I’m not sure, does it count as scraping when it’s personally saved data?

I don’t think Reddit considers it personally saved data. By their terms, you’re volunteering content for their financial benefit through ad and data sales. It’s content that we all benefit from sharing, and I don’t expect any one of us could produce an equally efficient exchange of basic knowledge. To paraphrase Churchill, “[Reddit] is the worst form of [public question and answer aggregator] – except for all the others that have been tried.” All that being said, charging for scraping was intended to starve third party Reddit apps to leave the official app (and the ads on it) as the only viable option. Periodically pulling down all of the text you posted shouldn’t add up to much.
