So, I've started my own Lemmy instance. The main issue is that right now, I am the only user, which makes it pretty easy for anyone to see what kinds of communities I visited, or am subscribed to. Is there any way to automate creation of some amount of accounts, and subscribing to random communities?

I finally found the script, sorry for the massive delay.

It's named "Lemmy Community Seeder" which is probably why I couldn't find it anywhere, I wasn't searching for those terms.
