Why does RMD only find 1000 results?

Though RMD can theoretically support any amount of results, Reddit limits most resources to the first 1000 results. This means that most User/Subreddit/etc Sources will be limited to 1000 results, maximum.

The PushShift Sources do not have this problem, and are recommended if you need more than the 1000 post limit.

Can I run this on a network drive?

RMD will not run well on any kind of remote file system. This technical reason for this is because the manifest file it uses to track download progress is an SQLite file, which requires the ability to be exclusively locked.

If you wish to download to a network directory, please look at storing the manifest locally on the system by changing the output.manifest setting to a local absolute path.
