Reddit Comment Search

Search Reddit comments by keyword, the place where people actually recommend and complain about tools. Returns comment text, author, score, subreddit, the parent post title and a link. Costs 2 credits per page. Tip: comments have no time filter upstream, so sort=new and stop paging once results get older than you need. Costs 2 credits.
