We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

Exporting all saved Reddit posts (alien.top)

First post here, big fan of data:) I would like to export all my saved reddit posts either as a text of the saved post, or as a link to the saved post. Preferably both but latter would also be sufficient.

Now I checked my saved posts with a tool https://pvik.github.io/saved-for-reddit/) when the Reddit API was still accessible, but I missed to export them, and the site I linked is obviously not working anymore..

Who could point me into the right direction to complete my task? Any script or similar I've missed? Thanks a lot!

Good input, I just downloaded the backup and the saved_posts.csv has 2092 entries! :D It's the URL to the saved post in the second column and some cryptic 6 digit code in the first one. And the list of the permalinks isn't chronological or alphabetical, seems ordered randomly..
