View submission: Update on COLO switchover -- bug fixes, reindexing and more

View parent comment

Yes, but another limitation for PRAW is the 1000 limit. I needed more than 1000 top posts of a subreddit.

Is there currently a way to filter the results by score in PRAW? That would make my project doable since pushshift is still unavailable for now.

Not that i'm aware of but I'm not nearly as familiar with PRAW, maybe something to ask about on /r/redditdev

If you've got a lot of time and or processing power you could run through the file dumps, the dumps have much more accurate scores due to the delay in collection vs the API but it'd still be advisable to get the current scores from praw using the ids from the dumps if the highest accuracy is needed.

The dumps are usually created at least a few days behind real time so the scores should be pretty close to current but not quite.
