a blank page for a link like this? it should at least show '[]' https://api.pushshift.io/reddit/search/submission/?subreddit=darkhumourandmemes

Okay, that looks good. Using this link is just a quick way to tell if the content you want is there in PushShift. So if the sub you are interested in returns anything in that 'data' array, like it did here, you can use the archive tool and it will work.
