Great work. Not a surprising result as it seems intuitive that the higher the post cost the more committed and thoughtful posters are going to be.

Yes, it's good to have empirical confirmation of this theoretical idea. Next step is to show that because of this, SN posts are higher quality than r/bitcoin posts. Unfortunately, I sent a API request to Reddit and it might have just gone into the black hole. Don't know if I'll ever be able to access Reddit data to make a comparison. I read that they tightened up their API access in 2023.

Would you like assistance with non-API based page scraping? Captchas are just an extra thing you have to do in code you know.

Yes I'd like that
My main concern would be getting around rate limiting/ IP bans since I'd probably be making a ton of requests
