Hi there, I followed the guide though for setting up. However, when I try and download a subreddit, I get Unable to connect to pushshift.io. Retrying after backoff. warnings.warn("Unable to connect to pushshift.io. Retrying after backoff.") and the terminal just sits with nothing downloaded. The command ends with raise Exception("Unable to connect to pushshift.io. Max retries exceeded.") Exception: Unable to connect to pushshift.io. Max retries exceeded..

Is there a way to say download everything from a subreddit, into an HTML file friendly way? Just want to download posts, comments and media. Just have a html file that i can open in a web browser and browse.

This was happening way beforehand.

I have given up and saved what I wanted to save using singlefile and boost and will now hope for the best.
