I created a reader for the AskHistorians reddit archives (ask-historians-archive.netlify.app)

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!
