Google Takeout for the Delphi Developers community per 05 NOV 2018

Google Takeout for the Delphi Developers community per 05 NOV 2018

The current takeout is rather meagre, and consists only of a list of 12606 posts, with the post URL and creation / update timestamps distributed over 13 json files.  

In the original takeout file, there were some VCF files with the member VCARDs, but I removed them as they are not essential.

Newest posts are in Posts-1.json, and oldest in Posts-13.json.

So - you read it correctly: The post itself is not in the takeout, nor are the comments to each post.

On the bright side:
The takeout format could enable a slow scrape on a per post basis, but there are certain tricks that needs to be applied - such as expanding the comment list to be complete, and I am not sure how sensitive the G+ servers are to scrapers.

Anyways, the .zip file with the .json data can be found here, if someone wants to have a go at doing a scrape.
