It's great ! Are you using reddit api or screen scraping the site ? And What about copyright issues ?

  Thanks for the comment. I use this tool that I developed. https://github.com/indatawetrust/reddit-crawl https://github.com/indatawetrust/reddit-crawl. There are currently 100k images registered. Obviously I don't have much idea about copyright.

  That's really a shame. One thing I'd suggest in addition to that: Find the account that posted it on Reddit and tell them to delete it. If the account doesn't comply, ask Reddit moderation to delete it. That'll save some time. AFAIK it is an uphill battle to report all the Reddit fetching image frontends that constantly spawn everywhere. Targeting the source is really the most effective approach.

Fun to browse! Just noted that the "next page" link doesn't contain the subreddit parameter.

I'm finding it's wrong/irrelevant or empty more than it's right, and even when it's right it's pretty much just the wiki info for whatever place is mentioned. These are taken from the front page of the first 2 categories I tried, and at least half were just empty. --- Sunset after the rain Baton Rouge, LA source Bats are mammals of the order Chiroptera; with their forelimbs adapted as wings, they are the only mammals naturally capable of true and sustained flight. --- Salt River Canyon, Gila County Arizona source Sal may refer to: --- Aerial view of the Amazon Rainforest [3450 × 2118] source Ra (; Ancient Egyptian: rꜥ or rˤ; also transliterated rˤw; cuneiform: 𒊑𒀀 ri-a or 𒊑𒅀ri-ia) or Re (; Coptic: ⲣⲏ, Rē) is the ancient Egyptian deity of the sun. --- The Lower Falls, Yellowstone National Forest [2304x3306]. source Forrest Gump is a 1994 American romantic comedy-drama film based on the 1986 novel of the same name by Winston Groom.

Please don't default to a subreddit with the word "porn" in its title, even if it was (at least for me) r\SkyPorn (skyscapes, etc).
