reddit will ipo soon, which is why this is frontpaged now, i presume. folks expect the api to soon become much more restrictive. other mirror projects don't have the ideology or reputation of archiveteam.

AT is not limited to Reddit scraping, take a look at their wiki.

I'm aware of AT and the work they do. Its a great initiative.

I'm just saying that other projects like https://pushshift.io/ have been capturing all reddit posts and comments for years now.
