Thanks for this. I need a tool to copy subscriptions over to a different account. Is there something like that?
Lemmy
Everything about Lemmy; bugs, gripes, praises, and advocacy.
For discussion about the lemmy.ml instance, go to [email protected].
I'm not sure what you mean, that's what this tool does. It will login to your main account, get a list of all your subscribed communities and subscribe to them on a new account on any instance that you specify.
doh, sorry I thought it copies contents of communities across. Thanks for this, much appreciated!
I was just thinking about doing something like to migrate some of my communities over (and was even planning on writing it in Python). Just ran it and it worked perfectly. Thank you, this saved me a bunch of time!
Thanks! I made a backup Lemmy account (for if my main instance went down or had other issues) so the idea of being able to easily move communities over is great.
This is exactly what I was hoping for! I’ve created a few subtext@‘s to try out the different servers and would love to be able to sync my subscriptions.
I have two accounts in two different instances, in the past of the days I've added lots of communities in both of them, but both are very similar, will this script override one to another like copying files from one folder to another or how does this works exactly?
My goal is to have them synced, so I'd copy from A) to B) and then B) to A) to have the same amount of communities, BTW, is there any way to know the exact number of how many communities I'm subscribed to?
Great, thank you.
Thanks for this!
I just tried and It works great! may I suggest to accept multiple destination accounts? perhaps with a config file, instead of a parameter? that way can be also possible to automate synchronizing the accounts that in multiple instances. Thanks for all the work.
The code is now controlled by a config file that allows multiple accounts to sync.
great improvement!! thanks!
I'll look into adding more options. I think I'm going to end up creating a full Lemmy API for python so that it can be used for a myriad of projects.
