Dataset Summary

Reddit_fi is a filtered and post-processed corpus consisting of comments from Reddit.

Some words of caution at this stage however. Subreddits were not filtered as in ScandiReddit to filter out any specific subreddits that could have hate speech, toxicity, biased. Be careful when training language models with this data and curate you dataset properly.

All Reddit comments from January 2006 up until December 2022 were downloaded through PushShift, after which these were filtered based on the FastText language detection model by using confidence score of 70% was as a limit.

We also filter out shorter than 30 character messages based on body field.

This project was inspired by https://huggingface.co/datasets/alexandrainst/scandi-reddit creator https://www.saattrupdan.com/. Kudos to you!
