Length of Historical data by Subreddit

Closed

Hello, I did three runs of Reddit Scraper Lite on 2024-12-17 from 3 different subreddits. I got varying lengths of historical data from each run. I am trying to understand why the history data is different.

r/AppleArcade: I was able to access about 6 months of posts and comments r/iosgaming: I only see past 2 weeks of posts and comments r/Gaming: I only see 1 days worth of posts and comments.

Why is the length of history data different? Do the rate limits differ by subreddit? Thanks ​

The scraper can only get what is available on the website. Reddit has a policy of keeping around 1000 posts for each subreddit. You should be seeing around that number of posts.
