I've been contributing as much as I can since I learned about this on the 9th
Is there a reason I'm limited to only 6 items running concurrently though? I'd like to actually use some of my resources to help with this.
I believe it is to prevent getting your IP blocked. At least that is what I got from the FAQ.
This is true. If you run the reddit-grab project directly without using the warrior (sudo docker run -d --name reddit --label=com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true --restart=unless-stopped atdr.meo.ws/archiveteam/reddit-grab --concurrent 6 yourname), you can set up to --concurrent 20, and some projects do work well with higher concurrent, but not reddit. 6 is already pushing the limit.
I'm running reddit-grab on 25 VMs on azure (trying to burn my $200 free credit that expires in 10 days) and I can only run --concurrent 4 safely on most of them. The only VMs that can run --concurrent 6 are the ones in India, which seem to be soft-ratelimited by their higher latency anyway.
This is a cool idea! Is there anyway to point it at a specific community? /r/nosleep was my favorite.
I don't think so. I've been trying to find a tool to export as much of a site as possible but haven't found that yet. Bulk Downloader For Reddit, or BDFR might do the tick but I don't have an instance running yet to see.
I’m on no cap fiber here. Might up my plan for the month to 1gb from 500/500. Either way, I’ll definitely run this on my server. Thanks for the idea!
Each Warrior can only work on one project at a time. You can spin up multiples and have them process different projects. Just remember to use "bridged" instead of "NAT" on the virtual adapter so they each get a unique local IP address.
I'm wondering how the subreddit blackout is affecting things. I've noticed my VM has really dropped down in bandwidth used the past hour or so.
Not sure. I'm leaving mine running for as long as possible to get what can still be archived. When some subreddits come back on the 15th the process will pick up. Then it is a dash until the API dies.
I have been using ripME on all the subreddits that I have on my subscription list and have been dowloading for two weeks now and it is still going strong.
