My question is, what is stopping someone from simply writing a web scraper that acts as if its a web browser and scrapes the actual subreddit(via reddit.com not api.reddit.com) and stores them in a local cache? I'm picturing an app that runs on a popular NAS software such as TrueNas, Synology, etc. So storage is not an issue.

Is there a way for Reddit to detect that this isn't authentic traffic from an actual user? If the web scraper authenticates as a normal user, and respects the request throttling, wouldn't it just fly under the radar as a particularly addicted user?","time":1686847416,"title":"Ask HN: Reddit API vs. Browser Requests","type":"story"}],[33422127,{"by":"whoishiring","descendants":300,"id":33422127,"kids":[33422467,33424050,33426056,33422137,33425563,33444945,33462316,33422393,33423205,33544715,33422223,33426795,33422443,33427505,33427390,33452569,33428035,33438519,33422135,33422341,33424359,33430663,33425378,33424110,33424540,33530867,33499689,33423289,33424424,33450079,33431209,33423214,33423323,33425962,33429029,33428505,33423622,33426850,33451927,33427280,33425030,33429442,33435474,33422213,33429185,33423302,33423299,33505005,33552402,33467372,33453695,33437812,33601365,33555404,33426973,33426349,33449339,33424674,33424156,33425218,33425787,33422571,33556809,33427774,33426570,33447020,33425674,33478126,33425063,33522072,33425997,33426088,33423250,33423829,33424713,33532869,33446278,33443234,33449556,33571548,33423902,33489730,33422347,33423871,33438383,33422463,33431653,33422913,33424569,33428360,33424637,33422696,33528048,33425852,33429234,33513992,33428872,33461457,33502953,33491600,33428094,33588250,33423183,33426635,33439268,33441598,33422793,33426260,33429825,33430189,33543985,33422523,33441933,33428067,33437569,33423453,33433778,33429618,33588968,33423277,33433348,33559538,33436092,33434072,33426840,33422579,33433845,33422702,33425668,33424264,33431428,33424198,33428359,33422624,33458849,33503085,33439295,33425596,33431135,33551835,33447528,33428313,33433996,33428076,33543995,33424712,33423606,33428366,33427047,33431137,33429278,33422530,33425323,33427329,33505801,33504057,33441301,33425882,33422701,33470421,33523377,33432258,33423731,33422238,33426713,33430452,33431267,33422616,33427113,33424437,33485216,33534092,33425872,33423267,33430067,33445210,33422425,33424506,33422486,33422939,33445224,33422573,33426766,33422142,33435593,33451917,33431222,33432186,33422621,33473891,33426659,33430230,33429989,33430864,33474865,33434957,33426317,33425475,33426988,33426094,33422361,33437354,33456402,33422159,33475527,33449775,33432784,33422626,33438221,33440394,33436182,33426135,33496023,33426093,33423425,33566459,33424477,33426054,33428062,33425276,33426803,33429215,33427696,33435274,33433270,33429244,33429897,33536548,33427184,33516038,33422561,33425945,33432530,33427602,33423280,33427255,33430825,33516203,33473702,33422477,33527904,33539181,33433450,33425320,33427017,33438210,33569037,33425665,33433967,33422649,33557720,33432515,33475604,33426314,33427637,33434317,33437339,33422563,33423197,33434076,33426334,33427381,33426278,33426611,33426828,33514960,33424386,33442319,33589542,33432142,33474120,33424337,33529551,33433971,33430457,33434223,33427738,33438767,33436593,33437333,33445590,33456634,33431462,33425738,33428354,33426175,33558642,33473066,33444118,33427666,33477713,33440783,33430354,33426310,33473772,33585032,33437806,33422391,33494995,33475610,33458129,33425817,33522691,33424204,33424142,33431416,33441233,33422314,33436519,33427407,33422658,33427181,33426442,33423838,33423134,33422631,33474407,33426719,33422514,33424100,33427918,33425775,33473307,33425986,33463169,33423901,33422313,33448953,33424585,33427565,33537354,33429217,33436233,33427405,33427094,33433930,33428334,33517258,33491477,33491177,33427528,33427520,33472770,33446373,33444135,33464503,33598794,33428456,33426535,33430053,33598787,33482288,33425770,33430406,33423787,33454208,33422695,33438940,33422522,33425343,33592022,33464865,33441388,33459242,33427102,33428078,33425743,33427885,33424230,33428239,33423874,33423359,33423042,33469780,33601696,33425112,33422254,33422187,33424966],"score":114,"text":"Share your information if you are looking for work.
