Hey, author of LASIM here if people have any questions!
Just so people know it does save everything to a JSON file when you click "download" so you can absolutely upload to multiple accounts or keep it as a backup.
Thanks for posting this, it's something I've been looking for. Incidentally, what happened with vlemmy? Somehow, I havent seen anything about it.
This sort of stuff is crucial and needs to be built in.
Most instances are one user's whim away from going away. This isn't a problem as long as clients back things up and migration is easy. But, that doesn't happen right now.
Guarantee we'll see some big news at points in the future when a big instance goes down because the owner died or just lost interest.
Again, these are easily overcome, but they are issues right now.
This is the first I've heard of LASIM, love that it copies blocks as well. I've been using lemmy-migrate and I don't think there's any options for block lists but otherwise it works really well across multiple accounts

LASIM definitely does not - it's designed for desktop and written rust, so not easily portable to iOS/Android.
Doesn't look like lemmy-migrate would either - it's a python script - unless there's a mobile python interpreter app or something.

iOS probably not but I think you could run python stuff in termux for android
Thanks @[email protected] ! The export worked well (ran LASIM on Windows), and the JSON file contains my followed communities and profile settings. Wish I had this prior to the Vlemmy outage 🤕
the former's honestly a godsend in setting up alt accounts
ya fr i used it to copy settings to shitjustworks and lemmee, i don’t think my instance is going anywhere any time soon but ya can never be too careful
How can I make LASIM work on Android without use of a PC?
