Reddit Posts Scraper (RSS, No Login)
Scrape Reddit posts through public RSS/Atom feeds — no login, no OAuth app, no API keys, no proxies. Pull subreddit listings (new/hot/top/rising), filter by keywords, and get structured JSON in seconds.
Why this actor
- 🔓 Zero setup — no Reddit app registration, no OAuth, no cookies
- 🛡️ Robust — RSS endpoints are far less bot-hostile than Reddit's JSON API
- 🧹 Clean output — post ID, title, author, URL, publish date, body preview
- 💰 Pay-per-result — charged only for posts returned
Input
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
subreddit | string | webdev | Subreddit name (with or without r/ prefix) |
query | string | (empty) | Optional keyword filter applied to titles/bodies |
sort | string | new | new, hot, top, or rising |
timeRange | string | week | Time window when sort=top |
maxItems | integer | 100 | Max posts (1–1000) |
Example
{"subreddit": "startups","query": "stripe","sort": "new","maxItems": 200}
Example output
{"id": "t3_1wd4rmu","fullname": "t3_1wd4rmu","title": "do you track the difference between code that's just messy and code that's badly structured?","author": "quietcodelife","url": "https://www.reddit.com/r/webdev/comments/1wd4rmu/...","publishedAt": "2026-09-11T03:28:24+00:00","bodyPreview": "I've been refactoring an old codebase and..."}
Use cases
- Monitoring — watch subreddits for keywords (brand mentions, tech topics, competitor names)
- Lead generation — find people asking for what you sell
- Research — collect discussion samples per topic
- Content pipelines — feed post streams into summarizers or AI workflows
Notes
- RSS exposes listing data (title, author, date, body). Vote counts and full comment trees require Reddit's OAuth API — consider the full Reddit actors if you need scores/comments.
- The actor paces requests politely (2.5s between pages) and backs off automatically on rate limits.
- Keyword filtering happens client-side over titles and body previews for maximum reliability.
