Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between r/popular and r/all?
r/popular is Reddit's curated, advertiser-friendly trending feed with some communities filtered out. r/all is the raw firehose of everything reaching the front page. Pick source to choose.
Can I get trends for a specific country?
Yes. Set country (for example GB or BR) to read the geo-filtered r/popular feed for that region. Leave it empty for the global feed.
What is the rank field?
rank is the post's 1-based position in the trending feed at the moment it was scraped, so you can reconstruct the exact ordering.
Does it return the full post text?
With Fetch Full Post Text enabled, every self/text post carries its complete selftext body. Link posts have no body text, so the external url is populated instead.
