I Archived The Entire Subreddit And Coded A Simple Website To Read It

ReeZoX · 2018-10-08T16:58:49+00:00

Really like it!

Only thing I would like is being able to sort/search the results based on the categories (flairs) and then sort that with the most upvoted one's :)

redpillschool · 2018-10-08T17:18:10+00:00

Thanks. So did we. https://www.forums.red/i/theredpill

We will always welcome more backup points, so thank you for helping out.

Our backup includes 3,176 Posts between TRP and AskTRP. With over 519,619 individual comments.

Counting RPW and ThankTRP, our total archive is 4,573 posts.

Instant search can be found here

In case of emergency we will release the entire database as torrent. FYI.

Forums opening soon with new mobile-friendly design.

What language did you use to scrape it? It's awesome btw good work.

Brushyourteethm8 · 2018-10-08T17:36:02+00:00

Solid work, thanks! Will you be doing the same for AskTRP, MRP and AskMRP? Some solid posts and advice in each

fuckboiwithfeelings · 2018-10-08T17:03:29+00:00

The community that keeps on giving, way to go!

robodylan123 · 2018-10-08T19:02:28+00:00

Did something similar here: http://trpbackup.com I have every single post backed up but only the top 1000 are browsable at the moment. You’ll be able to search all of them soon though.

dream-hunter · 2018-10-08T17:19:48+00:00

Great website but is there an option to search by date?

hardlifeman · 2018-10-08T17:31:47+00:00

Thanks for doing this.

When I click on these "load more comments" in old posts, it opens up a seperate "about:blank" page.

WarViper1337 · 2018-10-08T18:57:51+00:00

With the way things are going having extra back ups is probably a good thing.

huhub · 2018-10-08T17:49:38+00:00

I've been working on one of TRP backups, tried to post here, but the post did not make it.

AskTRP announce is here: asktrp/comments/9jxdtf/trp_sub_offline_backup/

I have completed 2016 and 2017, 2013-2015 are in progress, and I'm going to periodically update 2018. The entire archive contain 68,000+ posts + uncountable comments, no scripts and other unnecessary information (which reduced the size by half at least).

2018-10-08T22:40:24+00:00

You can never have too many backups, especially with the purging of "controversial" content and people online as of late.

Magnus_ORily · 2018-10-09T09:05:27+00:00

I feel part of an ancient civilisation who's history has been preserved

Mgtow_Maester · 2018-10-08T18:23:23+00:00

Any chance you could do that for mgtow as well? Not to mention some other manosphere subs.

JerryAwesome · 2018-10-08T17:07:38+00:00

Awesome, thanks!

ImmunosuppressedTau · 2018-10-08T17:08:46+00:00

Thanks man!

SalesOverEverything · 2018-10-08T18:26:32+00:00

Just wanted to thank you as well. This makes a real impact on men everywhere, usually for the better.

Thank you.

_Neon_Shadow_ · 2018-10-08T21:29:25+00:00

Amazing! I'm not in love with trp.red but this is an excellent substitute. Thank you.

YesToControversy · 2018-10-08T22:56:25+00:00

Have this virtual beer, mate. Don't drink it and drive though!

🍺

2018-10-08T23:00:30+00:00

You're doing god's work my guy, keep it up!

BlueFreedom420 · 2018-10-08T23:04:49+00:00

Thank you for this. Keep the memory before the big blackout (when the state and the elites to finally take the Earth)

MortalSisyphus · 2018-10-09T01:56:57+00:00

This is amazing. It would be great to have this done on my subreddit, which is obviously at high risk of being banned. Since you already developed the code, would it be particularly difficult to set this up for another sub? Please let me know.

2018-10-09T02:28:24+00:00

You are amazing, if I wasn’t poor I’d give you gold

johnpayne10 · 2018-10-09T05:06:30+00:00

Dude, excellent job. The website interface is really smooth, it loads very quickly. I want to give two suggestions though.

First: Maybe you shouldn't put asktrp posts in there? Most of the posts in asktrp are not worth anyone's time. It is a good thing to provide advice to someone asking for help. But I don't think it is necessary to add asktrp questions to the archive site. Add more TRP posts if you can. Because the posts and the comments sections on TRP are invaluable. If you already have added the top posts from all time, add the ones from this current year. Add the hot posts. The new posts.

Second: For the posts that you have uploaded only a part of the comments section is avaIlable. If possible, try to add the entire comments section for all posts. Because their is a lot of gold in the comments.

That being said, you have done an excellent job. It will help a lot of people out there. So congratulations and thank you.

wereworm5 · 2018-10-09T06:32:48+00:00

You are the hero we all wanted !

Asktrpthrowaway420 · 2018-10-09T06:43:18+00:00

Really awesome, clean and easy to navigate

standardmissile · 2018-10-09T09:04:18+00:00

Brilliant. Apart from the practical benefit this is a great example of DOING rather than WHINGING in response to the quarantine.

Some readers here really are internalising TRP and it's fantastic to see. Well done OP.

A_solo_tripper · 2019-01-20T21:58:13+00:00

The fact that you transferred so much data from reddit is amazing to me. I wish there were multiple platforms or versions of reddit, therefore if someone gets banned from one site, that account could still continue post unaffected, AND SEEN throughout accept that one site.

How long did it take you to do this?

Why not do this for all of reddit?

Why not allow accounts to post to reddit and your site? If someone posts on your site with their account, it'll show up on reddit as well under their account.

This will solve so many issues I have with reddit. From being shadow banned, to regular banned, to posts being removed, etc.

If you take my advice and you make millions, would you throw me a bag? :)

DulceDeLecheMardel · 2018-10-08T22:27:47+00:00

Can you make it downloadable so we can mirror it?

Nervous_Wallaby · 2018-10-31T00:34:41+00:00

The sorting feature is gone. Please bring it back
