Threadminer: A web-based tool for mixed-method analysis and AI-assisted qualitative coding of Reddit communities

Social media platforms like Reddit offer rich repositories of digital discourse, yet extracting and analyzing this data often requires advanced programming skills. This technical note introduces Threadminer, a Python-based web application developed to democratize access to Reddit data for social science research. Built on the Flask framework, Threadminer interfaces directly with the Reddit API to retrieve, process, and visualize data in real-time without requiring user authentication or storage.
