Reddit full page archiving. #739

Is it possible to do something about archiving Reddit posts? Every time I try it either comes back as a page that is just an empty "shell", with the Reddit UI but no actual content in the middle or, if it works, it's just a small blurb of the first few sentences and then it gets cut off with Reddit hiding the rest of the whole post and comments.

Is the problem that we don't wait enough for the post to load, or is it because of reddit not showing the full content of the post unless you expand it manually?

Maybe both? Because sometimes my pages come out partly blank, like the actual post and comment didn't load but the rest of the website did and sometimes, like you said, Reddit wants me to expand the text manually so only a small blurb of the text gets archived.

Ok, for the not waiting long enough, I think we can make this configurable. For clicking the expand button, that will be a little bit complicated as we don't do this for any other website.

@nicktheone not exactly what you're looking for, but I use the RSS feature to save all of my saved/upvoted posts on Reddit. You can get the RSS feeds for your saves/upvotes here: https://ssl.reddit.com/prefs/feeds/

@MohamedBassem this is related to my comment #638 (comment) for plugins. What I'd really like to do is hook into Hoarder's lifecycle and save the source content of the Reddit posts I upvote/save. e.g. I upvote a blog post on Reddit, Hoarder imports via RSS feed, and my Hoarder plugin sees it's a Reddit link and tells Hoarder to index the blog post rather than the Reddit post.
