reddit scout stopped pretending to be a review aggregator

started from a browser-only scraper that claimed reddit, trustpilot, and other review sites. reddit worked. the rest mostly didn't. tested the live paths and confirmed the real problem was the architecture: public cors proxies plus blocked review sites. trustpilot was returning bot-block responses. scamadviser was hitting cloudflare challenge pages. gridinsoft was the only non-reddit page that came through reliably, which wasn't enough to justify keeping the product framed as multi-source.

cut it back to what was actually true. renamed it reddit scout. removed the dead source toggles and broken fetchers. kept the working parts: reddit search, filters, modal, export. then added load-more pagination with dedupe so it can keep walking backward through older results without replaying the same 25 posts. moved the app into a real project folder, initialized git, and made the first local commit. github publish is the remaining step, but repo creation is blocked here because there isn't a github cli or token on this machine.
