Reddit User Comments Scraper & Exporter
Scrape comments made by any Reddit user, then export to Excel, CSV, or JSON. Supports pagination for large exports.
How It Works
Reddit exposes a public JSON listing for user comments at /user/<username>/comments.json. This tool paginates using the after cursor and exports link context for each comment.
How to Use This Tool
Install the Extension
Install the Lection Chrome extension to run the request locally in your browser.
Enter a Username
Paste a username (or a Reddit user profile URL).
Export Batch or Export All
Export all will paginate until there are no more pages or you hit Max Rows.
Download
Download as JSON, CSV, or Excel.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a Reddit account?
No for public users. This uses a public JSON endpoint.
Can I export more than 100 comments?
Yes. Use Export All to paginate using the after cursor.
Why is the extension required?
Browsers block cross-site requests to reddit.com (CORS). The extension runs the request locally and returns the response.
