REDDIT tools 🧵🧵🧵

10 web services and command line tools to help you search, collect and analyse data from Reddit more efficiently.

#socmint #osint #reddit Image
Many people don't find the search interface on Reddit user-friendly and use third-party search tools:

Better Reddit Search betterredditsearch.web.app
Reddit Search Tool redditsearchtool.com
Reddit Search camas.unddit.com
Pushshift Reddit Search redditsearch.io ImageImageImageImage
But I think the standard search is quite handy, as long as you know the advanced search operators. You can read more about them here:

11 simple and well-known Google Maps Tips.

Check how many of them you know.

Useful for #osint and beyond

🧵🧵🧵
One of the quickest ways to view Google Maps is to type "map" + address or the name of a place of interest into the Google search box.

1🧵
To gather as much information about a place as possible, try to compare its image on different maps. To convert a link to Google Maps into a link to 160+ different geo-information services, use OpenSwitchMapsWeb. Ex:

DuckDuck Go search

In this thread I will show you how the #python library "duckduckgo_search" works.
You can use it to automate regular searches in DuckDuckGo, as well as searches for images, videos, news, objects on a maps, and even text translation.

pypi.org/project/duckdu… Image
This code allows web pages to be searched automatically by DuckDuckGo. You can configure keywords, search region and number of sites.

The results will show links, headings and some of the text of the pages.

🧵 Image
You can also search for pictures (specifying region, colour scheme, licence type, etc.)

The results will show the title, the link to the picture, the dimensions and the source.
