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.
