3) could you make clear about what is difference between limit = 0 and None in replace_more

Desired Result

2. question 2

the len() of toplevel of reddit.submission.comments are different when replace_more is 0 , None or no replace_more
the len(reddit.submission.comments ) is 198 when replace_more (limit=0)
the len(reddit.submission.comments ) is 218 when replace_more (limit=None)
the len(reddit.submission.comments ) is 199 when no replace_more

submission.comments.replace_more(limit=None)
print(len(submission.comments))

submission.comments.replace_more(limit=0)
print(len(submission.comments))

1. Historically, Reddit is a place to post links. The url attribute refers to the url that is posted to Reddit not the url of the post on Reddit. That would be post.shortlink or post.permalink.
2. limit=None means there is not a limit to how many MoreComments PRAW will replace. limit=0 means no MoreComments get replaced. This is explained in the docs.
