danl posts, comments and images backup (updated to 8/24/2020)

https://mega (dot) nz/folder/Kh52VATT#N7zJiNfuz-DFJm8v7sDSLw

just substitute the (dot) with . to use the links, reddit auto detects MEGA links and deletes the post if i post the normal url

people with vegetable gardens share their seeds around to get them back if they loose their favorite plants so i hope many of you will save this data and share it around, i think it contains many valuable practical info on how to implement castaneda knowledge in our daily practice, obviously i asked for dan permission beforehand.

these files should contain every post and comment from danl since the beginning of 2019 ( i couldn't retrieve anything before that) file format is ODT which can be opened by using libreoffice (always support open source software) i will probably update the backup periodically.

if any of you have problems accessing the files from mega i can think of other backup places, maybe telegram or something like that

Archive.org and Google Docs or Google Drive are also kosher with Reddit.

For now anyway.

As a side note when you only have Dan's comments backed-up, you only have one side of the conversation... and it's a disservice to future practitioners.

It's out of context.

I found links in your comment that were not hyperlinked:

I did the honors for you.

thing is im using pushshift archive and parsing for comments through their api and that i know of you can only search by username, if someone knows a different way to do it, i will gladly do it

I looked into that same exact method, and was very cognizant of it's limitations. Probably why I didn't follow through on it.

Reddit has some maturing to do, in key areas.

That link is no longer active, as u/semlem is no longer on Reddit. This is the replacement link:

Link to backup files, and a .CSV file containing the searchable text of all of Dan's posts and comments ON THE PUBLIC SUB, as of Sep 11, 2022.

Thanks to u/semlem for ALL the work!:

https://mega (dot) nz/file/GGgBXBqb#io_r0R6xcNUD0P_fLRIRAiqGelECDHAPRwXNn9O65owI - (link replaced on 6/30/2024)

replace (dot) with .

Reddit doesn't allow MEGA links. And I don't know the fancy coding tricks to get such a link to display in the clear, and not get blocked. Even some redirect service links are disallowed.

u/semlem: "btw the .csv file should be opened with a normal text reader not with Excel or LibreOffice calc, this way it becomes way more readable. The csv program should be used only if you have a specific search in mind."
