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

          An admin account on lemmy.world got hacked earlier today. I wonder if these are connected 🤔

          For vlemmy it may be too late, the point is you can use this tool going forward at your next instance.

            yeah exactly, for future use

            i used it to copy my subscriptions to accounts i made on a few other instances, even though i have no worry Lemmy.ca will shut down any time soon, as a just in case

            @ieatpillowtags @brettvitaz I thought it was weird.
            I could get on there a couple of minutes yesterday and then it just stopped working.
            Today I could get the basic site without any posts.
