Is it possible? I’m with sh.itjust.works but I saw a few posts who were saying that my instance blocks certain stuff. Now I’m not thinking of jumping ship right this second just wondering if that is a possibility.
You can download your account settings, and upload to a new account on another instance. https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim
Author here! I’ve been posting about it a good bit, and especially with the hack of .world and vlemmy’s disappearance, now others have started sharing it too. Besides myself testing it with lemmy.ml, lemmy.world, and lemm.ee, I’ve seen at least a handful of people that say they’ve run it without issues. I’m assuming the real number is much higher but there isn’t any tracking in the app, or even a download counter, so I really have no idea.
Only known issue at the minute is whether it works on Mac OS X. It theoretically does, but the only person who attempted it ran into issues where OS X wanted to open it as a text file instead of running the program - and it’s the only platform I can’t test myself.
Obviously if you do have any issues you can report them on GitHub.
