I’m not the author. Just sharing this useful multiplatform tool

While this would be an awesome feature, Lasim doesn’t “migrate your Lemmy account between instances”, it copies “blocked users, blocked communities, followed communities, and most profile settings” between accounts on the same or different instance. Which, if you ask me, is already pretty cool.

There are some shortcomings, but overall it’s a useful tool. Due to recent server stability issues of some of my ‘home’ instances, I’ve been creating accounts on smaller instances and using this tool to quickly migrate my subscriptions.

Ideally, I’d like a tool than can just keep a specific list of accounts in sync as much as possible in realtime.

Even if you don’t plan on migrating your user config to another account, this tool is very useful as a backup tool. Imagine if your only server suddenly became unavailable or went totally dark - you’d have to create a new account and recreate all those subscriptions and settings by hand and by memory. With this tool, you can make a periodic snapshot of your account to be used later if needed.

Wow, that looks awesome.

What’s weird is how I missed that announcement. I used to be sub’d to !android@lemmy.world but they announced they were packing up and merging with another android community on another instance (that I started subscribing to). I thought the community on lemmy.world was dead, so I blocked it because I kept accidentally subscribing to the dead community. I’m shocked to see it thriving again.
