Oops sorry, shouldn't have converted this to a discussion. I thought that this wasn't the normal behaviour but it is; the BDFR automatically gets the top level comments and then recurses down. This should be allowed to be disabled. #791 is the new issue |

Description
I am trying to download a large number of reddit posts, load them into json objects, and parse the titles and post text. If I find a post that passes my filters, I want to send myself the permalink to that post. However, on some of these posts, the comments section is huge, which not only takes up more space on my computer but also increases the read/write time for going through these posts. I also suspect that it increases the download time. Is there any way to specify that no comments should be loaded when archiving a subreddit?
Here's my current opts file:
Apologies if there is an easy way to do this that I just missed! I've read through the README and haven't seen anything that matches my need yet!
