Since lemmy.world is having trouble for the second time in three days, I decided to switch back over to my lemmy.ml account. Unfortunately I don’t have all of my communities back over here in my .ml account, and it took me over an hour to manually subscribe to the ones I had over on my .world account.
It would be great if there was a way that we could export our community list from one instance and import it to another. It would make it much easier to change communities if the need arises.
I have use this and I can vouch that it works on most instances; I moved my subscriptions from another instance to mander.xyz using this tool.
But I also have another account in a smaller instance and it doesn’t work. I’m guessing that instance hasn’t been updated.
Author of the tool here! If you are okay letting me know the instance, I can definitely take a look and see if I can figure out the issue. I might need to make an account though.
There’s lots of Lemmy instances, and I’m always finding new quirks with different configs. But it’ll help the next person who might run into the same thing!
