I’m moving my posts from Reddit to Lemmy before delete them.

Are you some automation to migrate your posts? Cause I have been thinking of doing it. But it’s too much work.
To be fair, I thought about that however saw posts from other people that blocked from posting because of the automation. Also I think the automation process is pretty much botched thanks to API change. So I handpick my posts, mostly skipping forum posts, that leaves image-based posts which are not that many, at least for me.
Maybe it can be still possible if you want data request from Reddit, since you’ll get your post links. Unless they’re NSFW, scrapping should work after that.
My most common command is probably yay -Syu
When you install or update something that breaks something, like has happened to me many times, to the point that the system cannot boot, you can pick a snapshot from the grub menu from before those changes occurred, allowing you to recover your system to a working state without the use of a live boot usb.
It’s also been useful when some program or other stops working due to some change in a dependency somewhere, like OBS sometimes does. Then you can just hop backwards in time to a point where it works and get to actually using your system, instead of spending hours tracking down exactly where an error is occurring right then and there. “fixing it later” becomes a valid way of dealing with problems with your system, when just pressing a button lets you make it temporarily go away.
Alias yolo=yes 😂 I know what new alias I’m creating on my laptop and rasp pi’s 😂
I first discovered Timeshift through Garuda, which had it set up by default. It mitigates the issue of bleeding-edge updates breaking your system.(Although they use Snapper now, which is supposedly better with BTRFS.)
