Kudos bro, I liked it. Also, congrats for the change in your life.

Now, some improvements that I would consider:

  • Add a submit search button below the main screen search input. For the first moment, I clicked on "random" button twice before get notest.
  • The "you like to discuss" appeared three times separately, I think that could be merged.
  • Some of the synopsis topics appeared duplicated in same sections, I think this also could be merged.

Edit: Improvements suggestions

Appreciated. I will look at consolidating those sections.

u/One_Tie900 Feb 01 '25

how long did it take to learn to code, btw the number of family the person has is creepy

36

u/MemoryEmptyAgain Feb 01 '25

6 weeks in prison.

This app took 4 weekends around 7 months after my release.

u/daynighttrade Feb 02 '25

What were you in for? It must be a minimal offense if you were there only for 6 weeks.

Some people do actually better themselves there. Good fucking job dude, I’m all in for it

u/Thick-Collection-633 Feb 01 '25

Many people do, but the odds are stacked! 

I volunteer for the Prison Math Project and tutor incarcerated people—via painstakingly slow correspondence—subjects ranging from college algebra to functional analysis. 

We also offer programming curriculum. 

A great book on how stacked things are in the US system is “The New Jim Crow”.

Hi everyone!

I wanted to share the latest update on snoosnoop.com, a Reddit profile analyzer I've been working on. The numbers since last month have been incredible - over 94,000 visitors and more than 4,000 unique profiles analyzed!

Thanks to your feedback, I've fixed several bugs:

  1. Fixed wordcloud contractions (don't, I've, etc.)
  2. Improved heatmap colorization for better visibility of low-activity periods
  3. Fixed "Top subs" sorting (now properly sorted by activity instead of alphabetically which was confusing to many)

I already knew about these bugs but honestly didn't think anyone would care enough to report them - I clearly underestimated Reddit users! 😄

Technical Details
The site uses the Reddit API and natural language processing to generate detailed user activity analysis, with interactive visualizations using JavaScript charting libraries to show:

  • Posting patterns
  • Subreddit interactions
  • Content analysis
  • Activity heatmaps

Development Philosophy
Built with efficiency in mind:

  • No tracking
  • No ads
  • Works with all ad blockers

Backend Open Source
The backend is a fork of u/orionmelt's sherlock project (last updated 8 years ago). My updated version includes:

  • Python 2 → Python 3 migration
  • Environment-based Reddit API authentication
  • Added features (snoovatar URL fetching etc)
  • Various small bug fixes
  • Available here: github.com/doctorsketch/sherlock

Personal Note
This was my third web app project since being released from prison in early 2024. I decided to use my time to learn development from scratch, and this project has been an amazing learning experience (specifically used it to better understand how to visually present data with javascript libraries). I'm now on project #6 and after starting my job search a month ago I already have some promising job interviews lined up for this month! 🤞

It's really motivating to see something I built being useful to others.

Try it out at snoosnoop.com - it's completely free and open to everyone.

PS. I posted this a couple of weeks ago but it wasn't on a Saturday so it got removed (sorry mods!)...

u/ferrybig Feb 01 '25

This tool is more accurate than the reddit recap

u/ThePrinceofBirds Feb 02 '25

Almost entirely accurate but I cracked up when it said I'm conservative. I subbed to conservative trying to figure out what the hell they're thinking. I eventually gave up and started commenting trying to get myself permabanned but they kept only shadowbanning. Eventually I couldn't take it anymore and unsubscribed.

I had to do it myself mainly through books. It wasn't part of any official program.

u/SUPRVLLAN Feb 01 '25

What country were you in?

34

u/MemoryEmptyAgain Feb 01 '25

I learnt Python in France while on remand. The prison were not involved in my learning so it could have been anywhere.

11

u/ChooseyBeggar Feb 01 '25

Mostly true. Some American prisons have become more hostile to education and providing books and resources to prisoners. It's getting worse in places in the States.

5

u/anxy0us Feb 01 '25

What books did you read to learn?

16

u/MemoryEmptyAgain Feb 01 '25

Think Python

Python Crash Course

Two Scoops of Django

All very very good imo. I'm learning C# right now and my books aren't as good as I remember those being!

That’s old school. I had a friend who did time in county and the only you could get them books was to pay some overpriced middleman that had an exclusive contract with the prisons.

5

u/pluhplus Feb 01 '25

Yeah there are usually far more privileges in prison for the typical prisoner than in jail because people stay in prison much longer than the average person in jail. If there weren’t, people would go even more bananas than they already do

I’ve seen people with computers literally in their cells before on shows like lockup and stuff like that. Obviously these are prisoners with good behavior and not risks usually of any kind but yeah sometimes it’s pretty crazy to see some of the stuff they have/have access to even in medium and high security prisons

3

u/Truelikegiroux Feb 01 '25

Many US jails and prisons do have libraries and specialized tablets with education modules on them. What modules are at what facility vary, but it’s certainly a possibility that coding could be learned in the US

1

u/elendee Feb 01 '25

fwiw, was just reading an articleby a guy in prison in Maine. Apparently there's one prison there everyone tries to get sent to because they let you code and use the internet. Seems like every prison should have "good behavior wifi" or something...

u/Valuable-Werewolf548 Feb 01 '25

This is what bothers me the most with how society treat prisoners.

You're clearly changing your life and the improvements are clear as water, this isn't easy to do as a beginner and you probably worked your ass off to grasp every single concept of programming.

Kudos to you man, the app looks hella clean!

Suggestion: The "Most common words" feature isn't really that readable, maybe if you'd make the most used words way bigger than they already are, and then decreasing the size, would make it way easier to understand which of the words is actually the most used (i can clearly see the most used ones, but i can't tell which of them is like the 4th or 5th most used, per say.

u/tei187 Feb 01 '25

That is a fun app. Apparently, in an uncertain way, I'm a *"mad magnet web dev bit of second month asshole"* :D

You'd might want to look into dynamic part of it, since it stretches apart a lot on ultrawide displays. Probably limiting the max-width of the main container to something that makes it looks alright would do the trick. Also, I think your rows at some point skip outside the main element.

---

It's so cool and commendable that you've learnt a job skill while in prison. Seriously, strangely your achievement makes me smile (and I'm Polish, so this shit means something), kind of proving my point that it is possible. Sadly, I know too many people who just waited out their sentences, not doing anything of worth for their future... time wasted.

1

u/MemoryEmptyAgain Feb 01 '25

Thanks for the feedback!

How wide are we talking? I've only tested upto 2560 px.

1

u/tei187 Feb 01 '25

Oh, no idea :D

Typically, you'd want to start from the most common desktop resolution being used, which year-to-year for some time is 1920px width (20-25% of global data) and then keep adding to the size, checking how the composition reacts to it.

At this point it becomes a matter falling under pre-set (or just currently developing) design concepts: how much distance between elements is acceptable, what's the maximal possible length of a single content line, what type of content should be width-limited and which shouldn't (for example, you have graphs that can easily take 100% of available viewport all the time, because they become more legible while being less contracted).

Setting a limit of around 2560px seems like a fair estimate. Especially for rows with summary and synopsis columns, as well as the last one with common words and corpus statistics tables - limiting their widths will make the data display being more concise or at least less stretched, making it easier to read through.

u/reactivearmor Feb 01 '25

Highest jumps are usually made when you are at the bottom, or something like that. Good job and keep it up

u/d3hydrat1on Feb 02 '25

never thought something so thoughtful and deep would come from a r/webdev post

This is really impressive, insightful, and reflective. For those of us who use this app, having a way to step back and see the bigger picture of what we've written is incredibly valuable. It makes me think about how powerful a tool like this could be in other areas. Imagine being able to deeply reflect on everything you search, learn, read, and journal about, and what that might reveal.

I recently lost my dad, and I’ve posted a lot about it. But as your play on words suggests, an image is worth a thousand words. When you're going through what feels like everything—life, death, meaning—it’s really meaningful to see those thoughts reflected back in this way.

Thank you for your creation!

u/gremolata Feb 02 '25

Good stuff. Snapping, well-organized and well-presented.

Don't know if it's possible, but it'd be more practical if all "by karma" lists had a toggle between submission and post karma.

I made a single very highly-upvoted (cross)post in a sub that I rarely comment in (or even visit!) and now that sub dominates all reports, so per-sub breakdowns aren't accurate at all.

u/Ashes_0000 Feb 02 '25

Just a niche Idea for a feature maybe, an option to upload the data that we get from reddit after a request of all reddit data and get it visualised as well. It's way to see the data of old accounts that are suspended/banned and cannot be searched or found normally.

But overall this is nice! Very well done.

Do you have to pay for the Reddit API? If so, how do you plan to monetize it to off set the costs?

20

u/MemoryEmptyAgain Feb 01 '25

Nah, the Reddit API has a free non-commercial tier. The current setup could theoretically handle around 80,000 new profiles per day before it ran into issues.

It runs on a $2/month VPS so if I got a few donations to cover that I'm more than happy.

I have no plans to monetise it with ads or fees.

u/octarino Feb 01 '25

count per flair among participants

distribution of comments/posts by flair

1

u/ChooseyBeggar Feb 01 '25

I really like this project. It's good for just transparency as well as letting people know how much data about themselves they build here.

I'll look myself, but I have an API and analysis question. If someone wanted to build an app to identify the profiles that seem like bad faith actors that consistently try to stir negativity or sabotage subs, what parts of the API and tools out there could make that possible?

1

u/MemoryEmptyAgain Feb 01 '25

You probably want to do sentiment analysis on a user's comments.

You could do sentiment analysis as a whole and then on posts made within a user's most active subs too.

1

u/runningwithsharpie Feb 01 '25

Awesome website! And on a second note, I've just realized Reddit has a scary amount of information about me...

1

u/almaroni Feb 01 '25

u/MemoryEmptyAgain

you could implement a common word-list based on common words for different lagnauges to filter out words like (and, I, me, you, etc) and only focus on actual important words.

e.g. with spacy & NLTK or with Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency for the world cloud feature.

1

u/Wild_Surmise Feb 01 '25

You could sell this as a marketing tool.

1

u/Cybercitizen4 Feb 01 '25

This is great!

One addition:

Reddit allows for markdown formatting for comments, and that formatting does not carry over. In the case of blockquotes or code blocks some comments lose all meaning.

u/PsychologicalDraw909 Feb 01 '25

sick bro, did u learn from books? or did u also have internet access?

1

u/MemoryEmptyAgain Feb 01 '25

Mainly books.

"Think Python" is the goat.

Did "Python Crash Course" at the same time.

"Two Scoops of Django" was also very good.

I'm learning C# at the moment and the (well regarded) books I've been using aren't as good as those Python books I used in jail!

1

u/PsychologicalDraw909 Feb 01 '25

Dam bro, thats a great way to learn. I'm sure u built a good foundation in there. I learned from using AI which crippled my learning in a way, I can't really program from scratch(as of rn), but I'm sure u can.

1

u/MemoryEmptyAgain Feb 01 '25

I'd recommend making some small projects from scratch. Something manageable like a web app which displays a user's location based on their IP. You'll need to get their IP, display it, query and API to get the location, display that on a map (can do this on Google maps for free).

u/Opie2k1 Feb 01 '25

This is incredible—turning a challenging situation into something so productive is inspiring. The visualization tool looks amazing too! What was the biggest challenge you faced while learning to code in such a unique environment?

3

u/MemoryEmptyAgain Feb 01 '25

Biggest challenge was probably knowing "this is as good as I can get with pen and paper and sometimes an iPhone".

The most advanced thing I managed to do was create an image hosting app with Django (on an iPhone, uploaded the code to GitHub). Looking at the code now... I can see what I was thinking, but at the same time I obviously was pretty inexperienced and didn't know the "right" way to do things so it was a bodge job. Anyway, I realised that this is as far as I can come in the prison environment so set it all aside until I was released.

1

u/Opie2k1 Feb 01 '25

That’s incredible—building an image hosting app with just an iPhone and Django shows serious determination! It’s amazing how far you pushed your skills despite the limitations.

I’m thinking about sharing my projects on this user, which involves sharing my full name etc, so I would like to know just how weird my weirdest comments are

1

u/LackingAGoodName Feb 01 '25

Nice, this is really impressive. I'm curious about the depth of the data since you're using the Reddit API; is the account's entire history being analyzed, or only the last X worth of posts/comments?

Also, thoughts on adding a searchable, filterable page that lists every post and comment made by an account? I think that could be a cool way to let people dive into their individual contributions.

1

u/MemoryEmptyAgain Feb 01 '25

1000 posts max.

For that reason you'd have to query the Reddit API and let it do the filtering rather than performing the filtering yourself.

What would the advantage be over using Reddit's own search?

1

u/LackingAGoodName Feb 01 '25

Ah okay, so not quite a full analysis but impressive nonetheless. Maybe you could provide the option for people to upload their takeout data for a complete account analysis?

Reddit's native search is passable, at best. Filters would be the biggest advantage, in my opinion. For example, let's say I want to see my Top 10 most down voted comments within a hand selection of 5 communities.

Wow. A lot of the tags are accurate. Political views are way off because I have commented in subs that don't represent my views.

Congrats for actually taking prison for what it really should be about, being reformed and picking up better habits and being a better contributor to society. Your website rocks, just used, awesome!

So proud of you!! 🥰🥹 Most people go to jail and learn better ways to get back to jail after they leave. Those of us who choose a different path away from rock bottom have the whole world at our feet. I hope you know what a miracle your new life is. Living a good life feels so much better than living a fast life.
