Reddit title (h1) scraping

What tools do you use? I use screaming frog and pythin for that but it takes such a long time and a load of errors to go through, is it the reddit tht blocks the access to title scraping? any experience?

I understand.

I actually have access to a reliable service like Outscraper, which automates Reddit data extraction with built-in proxy rotation and anti-block measures, making it much faster and more accurate than using Screaming Frog or basic Python scripts.

Yes, it’s mostly Reddit doing this, not your tools. Reddit limits requests pretty hard, so once you start scraping a lot, errors show up fast. Screaming Frog and scripts are fine, they just hit the limits quickly. Going slower and in smaller batches usually helps a bit, otherwise it turns into a mess.

Use one of existing scrapers or write your own. Be warned you might need proxies to bypass limits and run scrapers in parallel.
