### Why not use an SDK?
Reddit API does not have an official SDK, although
[PRAW](https://github.com/praw-dev/praw) has large community support.
I played around with PRAW, but ultimately decided to not use an SDK.
PRAW made it incredibly easy to work with Reddit Objects, but there were
a few drawbacks that ultimately swayed me to not use it:
1. PRAW assumes that it will do the auth for you. A client ID and secret
must be passed to PRAW, but a tool only has the auth token. I was able
to hack around this by manipulating private properties - but it felt too
hacky
2. PRAW does not support Python 3.13
3. PRAW is not async. There is
[AsyncPRAW](https://github.com/praw-dev/asyncpraw), but the community
does not look active there.
