Works well to just spin up a python:3.11 container via Docker or Podman and do the pipx + reddit-user-to-sqlite installations, then run the utility in there. You can mount some folder as part of starting the container or copy the reddit.db file out of the container before throwing it away. Avoids any changes to your real system at all.
