Could you build this?

Partial The dashboard and statistical charts are easy to build, but reliably scraping, ingesting, and updating historical and trending data for 100,000 subreddits against Reddit's restrictive and costly API constraints requires serious distributed scraping infrastructure.

What it would actually take: The architecture requires a distributed crawler network (handling rate limits, proxy rotation, and Reddit API quotas), paired with high-throughput stream ingestion (Kafka/ClickHouse) to process millions of comments and posts daily. Analytical pipelines must run continuous aggregation jobs for keyword extraction, post frequency metrics, and audience overlap graphing. Maintaining this pipeline demands specialized data engineering and infrastructure resilience against aggressive anti-scraping measures.
