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

FieldTypeDefaultDescription
subredditstringwebdevSubreddit name (with or without r/ prefix)
querystring(empty)Optional keyword filter applied to titles/bodies
sortstringnewnew, hot, top, or rising
timeRangestringweekTime window when sort=top
maxItemsinteger100Max 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.
