After the whole reddit API fiasco, I wanted a way to browse the AskHistorians subreddit on my phone without using the reddit app or website. It also bugged me to have all this valuable information on a site that might make it disappear on a whim.

So, I present to you the AskHistorians Archive. It allows you to browse past submissions to the subreddit, it’s ad-free, works on mobile, loads fast, and works without JS.

For now, it only contains some of the most recent posts up until 2022-12-31, but I’m planning to upload more over time.

I hope this is useful to some - happy to hear and implement any feedback!

    Thanks for this! Ask Historians was the one thing that made me really hesitate to completely cut ties with Reddit.

      OP’s archive tool is a great start

      Wish there was a way to just import tons of posts from Reddit to here as well. Or maybe just a community dedicated to archives with a list of links to a bunch of things like what Op made?
