Thanks for your work on this!

It looks like there's currently an issue with the id search on Pushshift, the example comments id search query provided in the Pushshift API documentation returns an Internal Server Error.

I am having the same issue.

FYI according to this comment on Reddit:

reply from SITM

Yeah, I am moving that functionality to Elasticsearch because the Postgresql DB got too large for the ZFS array. I am anticipating that will be fixed in the next couple of days. We're doing some major revamping of the API to increase storage across the board and to make the cluster more redundant

The comment id search should hopefully be up before then though

ok thanks. I think I can fix that functionality by this evening / tomorrow morning at the latest

Thanks for all the work on pushshift - really great resource. Curious as to status of id-based comment search and if there are any estimates on when it will be back up? Getting 0% Success Rate when search comments by id with pmaw.

This response to a related issue raised on pmaw repo suggests the issue is with the pushshift server (as opposed to an issue with the pmaw client).

Has there been any update on this? I haven't been able to successfully get any comment ids through pmaw.
