A couple people have asked about the meaning behind the name "Pushshift." When I picked that name, I was thinking about how a queue works (pushing an element on the end and shifting an element off the beginning of an array / list).

hey Jason, just found out about Pushshift, love it! am wondering what it costs you to run it and specifically how you get data from Reddit at the time of post - does that mean youve registered some webhook with them for literally every post and comment? no way that’s free right?
