With the vlemmy situation ongoing, i feel like it would be useful to put this here (i did not make either of these tools)
Lemmy Account Settings Instance Migrator (LASIM) copies all your subscribed communities and blocks and lets you upload them to another account, in just a few clicks
lemmy-migrate does the same thing but without a GUI and support for uploading your backup to multiple accounts at once
This was reported a few days ago: https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim/issues/15
You can see my responses - I’m not sure there is much I can do, but I’m open to suggestions.
As stated in the linked issue, the most secure thing is to build it yourself or download directly from GitHub actions vs trusting the binaries I publish to releases.
No worries. It just felt irresponsible not to say something.
