Hi Xanat,

You're in luck--all Reddit posts and comments from the beginning are 
available to download here: http://files.pushshift.io/reddit/ . However, 
they're in JSON format so you'll need to learn how to parse that before 
you can access them. Best, /DEEN

I would like to know any software recommendations to download: a) Reddit posts and b) Information about Reddit users. If anyone has literature related to Reddit and psychology, we would be grateful too.
