Dropbox + Reddit

Create text files in Dropbox for new hot posts in Reddit subReddit

Stay updated with trending posts from your preferred subreddit on Reddit, and have their details stored in Dropbox as a text file. This workflow kicks in whenever there's a new hot post in a selected subreddit, subsequently generating a corresponding text file in your Dropbox. It's a straightforward way to keep track of popular topics or discussions, making it simpler for you to revisit them at your own time.
