I built my own Reddit API to beat Inflation. Web Scraping for data collection.

The only way for us cash strapped developers to make it in this economy!

In this video, I decide to create my own version of the Reddit API for as cheap as possible (whilst still remaining cloud hosted). We look at how I gathered the data, and how I built a simple, yet affordable, data pipeline, and finally, a usage based API which costs me pennies, rather than hundreds of dollars.
