This should get you started, because you don't really need to do fancy image trickery.

All reddit posts have data-testid=post-container selectors which let you get the top level post. All comments have a .Comment class you can use, so you can enumerate all the comments on any given reddit post and capture them separately if that's what you want.

Some major caveats of this code:

  • It does not respect comment nesting - I only took a brief glance at Reddit's page source but they don't seem to have easy ways of getting comment chains.

  • Reddit could change their selector names/CSS classes any time, and they do have some inconsistencies in how they seem to name things anyway.

  • You specify you want to capture AskReddit threads, which can be quite large, so you could easily end up with, say, 1000+ comment screenshots on popular threads, or even 10K+ screenshots if you just let it run with abandon. I set a limit of 10, modify code as needed.

  • I wrote this as a demonstration, I have no idea how it will perform on giant posts or such, but hopefully it shows you how to actually pull the information you want. If you need to do more work, you will likely have to inspect Reddit page layouts with your browser's developer tools.

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import asyncio
from playwright.async_api import async_playwright, Browser

MAX_COMMENT_LIMIT = 10


async def capture(browser: Browser,  url: str) -> None:
    page = await browser.new_page()

    await page.goto(url)
    posts = page.locator("data-testid=post-container")

    # reddit loads differently sometimes, so you need to
    # find the first post on the page
    await posts.first.screenshot(path="post.png")

    # this does not respect comment-nesting
    comments = page.locator(".Comment")
    count = await comments.count()
    print(f"Found {count} comments")
      
    for i in range(count):
        await comments.nth(i).screenshot(path=f"comment-{i}.png")

        if i+1 == MAX_COMMENT_LIMIT:
            print(f"Screened {MAX_COMMENT_LIMIT} images, stopping.")
            break


async def main() -> None:
    reddit_url = "https://www.reddit.com/r/cpp/comments/w9xkmf/c_for_scientific_programming/"
    async with async_playwright() as p:
        browser = await p.chromium.launch()
        await capture(browser, reddit_url)
        await browser.close()

asyncio.run(main())
