If you used GummySearch
A GummySearch alternative built so it cannot die the same way
GummySearch was a Reddit research tool; the Reddit API decided its fate. DemandLens reads demand across Hacker News, Stack Exchange, GitHub, eBay and domain registries — plural sources, each under a published licence verdict — and refuses to read Reddit at all.

What GummySearch stated about itself
What DemandLens does not replace
DemandLens does not read Reddit — its licence is red in our source catalogue, and we would rather say so than route around it. If your research depended on Reddit threads specifically, no DemandLens report will show them. What it shows instead is where people complain, search and pay on the sources we can read under licence.
Read the report before you pay. The full report is $24, once, for this idea.
