Hi all, I’m a Lemmy FOSS app contributor that’s made a couple of tools for people starting small instances including Lemmy Community Seeder (LCS) for building content on new server’s All Feeds and Lemmy Post Purger (LPP) for clearing old posts on smaller instances.
Today I’m releasing Lemmy Defederation Sync (LDS). When launching a new Lemmy instance, administrators may not understand the necessity of defederation with problem instances. Using LDS, you can sync your instance’s “blocked instance” list with that of another server(s) whose admins you trust.
regardless of the tools, you should never trust something online to stay for long, there are so many things that can cause a post to be deleted, poster deleting it, server going down, admin error, change of rules etc, lemmy has got the advantage of having an open api, use it to save your shit and don’t expect anything to stay online for long
