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 could be useful, however, I’m not sure if I want to merge my accounts. I made 3 to split the communities I want to follow, but I notice I mainly use 1. (this one ;) )

    Also, no clue (yet) how the ConfigParser handles spaces in arguments. (and how to solve this if the answer is ‘not well’)

      I like to have one main account I use for most of my interaction, but I’ve learned recently and the hard way why I should maintain a backup.
