then I set a save folder ...

as mentioned above, it does find 25 of my comments, but then does not download them, with the above given status messages.

I just want to download all my own comments on reddit. not more. please help.

MalloyDelacroix commented 5 years ago

There are actually a couple of issues here. The first being that at this time the Downloader For Reddit does not support downloading self posts or comments. It will only download media links from supported host sites. Version 3.0, which is currently under development, will support downloading self posts and comments. My goal is to have it released by mid-year.

The second issue is related to save file migration on Linux systems. This issue only occurs when a save file is created with an older version of the app, and then loaded from the new version. This is an issue that I have been aware of, but only occurs on one of the three Linux machines I use to test the app and I have been unable to solve as of yet. Version 3.0 will have a new storage backend that I hope will solve this issue as well.

Since these issues are already referenced elsewhere, I will close this issue.

Ah, thanks.

Misunderstanding from my side.

What about making the purpose of your tool a bit clearer in the README:

Downloader for Reddit is a GUI application for downloading content submitted to reddit.

--> perhaps like this:

Downloader for Reddit is a GUI application for downloading content (images, videos) submitted to reddit. Currently it does not download posts or comments yet, that is planned for a future version of DownloaderForReddit.

?

Thanks a anyways for the infos.

Feel free to post a short message here when 3.0 is released, then I am happy to try it out.

Thanks.
