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!

    Great work mate. There’s no telling when any of the data on Reddit will either be removed, paywalled or modified. Getting some of the useful info out there in an accessible format is super handy

      Yes! Archiving is crucial work, but the archives need to be accessible as well :)
