I've been looking for something like this for Reddit. I'd love to be able to pull down all of my comments there (ideally with context).
The only things on my phone that I don't regularly back up are text conversations. I've seen tools that forward all your texts to a gmail account, but I'm not really looking to give all that data to Google assuming they aren't already reading them off my device.
- mholt 7y agoSure, contributions welcome if you want to add reddit! I'd use it too. :) As for text messages: that's on my list, but I'd have to learn how to write a mobile app first. If anyone is serious about contributing that, let's chat in the issues about an app design.
- Vinnl 7y agoI'm using Signal for text messaging as well, and thus can use its automatic backup functionality (only on Android currently, I think ). In case it's useful to you.
- froindt 7y agoI've used SMS Backup and Restore on Android. Exports to xml, and can include mms if desired. It's pretty good overall, though emojis can cause issues. They offer 2 settings on how to handle them.
- Thorrez 7y agoLast I checked reddit only shows your your last 1000 comments. So it's impossible to get your older comments. I don't know how they do this in light of GDPR's data portability requirements.

But what you can do is download every single comment on reddit, then search through that to find yours. See https://www.reddit.com/r/pushshift/ https://www.reddit.com/r/pushshift/
