Sounds good. Let me know how it goes. Hopefully it's just instance instability.

Yep, if you are on Windows just extract that .exe somewhere and then run it.

The README is displayed underneath the screenshots on the link to LASIM above. It tells you how to run it. See "How it Works".

https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim#how-it-works

The latest version supports any Lemmy 0.18.3 instance. You can see which version a Lemmy instance is at the bottom of site. For example, your instance, reddthat.com, is 0.18.3. Most instances should have upgraded to 0.18.3 already - choose one of those. Any instance running 0.18.3 should work, big or small.

The account you "download" with won't be touched at all. The account you "upload to" will receive all the subscriptions and blocks of the downloaded account.

Thanks for spreading the word about LASIM!

Just letting you know that today I finished an update that adds upload options, including an option you can turn on to "sync removals", which kindof achieves this.

It may not be the right tool for every scenario though - turning it on basically means that whatever account you upload too will end up identical to the one you downloaded by following/unfollowing and blocking/unblocking as needed. But if you've got new follows, blocks, etc. spread across several accounts you wouldn't want to turn it on or you'd lose all the changes on the accounts except for whichever one you downloaded.

The option works better in scenarios where you're mostly using a Main account, and just trying to keep the Alt accounts in sync with whatever the Main account does.

A super minor one, but there's a new "infinite scrolling" boolean added to the user settings.

For rust app developers, the publishing of lemmy_api_common crate is also discontinued with this release: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/commit/5cd4c6c5868c8bec964b6065d079f3a057885be7

For LASIM I switched to point at the Git Repo + Specific Tag in my Cargo.toml.

Removed "and above" from page and instead added a note to always get the latest version if your version isn't listed as supported explicitly.

Thanks for your kind words, I'm glad it has helped you!

The whole site is having stability issues at the minute.

There was ddos attack on it earlier and it hasn't really recovered.

There are tools that can help! https://lemmy.ml/post/1875767

I made LASIM - it's takes 2 API calls to fetch your subscriptions (1 login, 1 profile), so with lemmy.world being 50/50 on those calls, you might have to try a few time, but once you have em, it will be easy to push them to a new instance.

I don't think so, but I'd love to be proven wrong!

Oh man this one is SO much worse. If this is what is going on the only way to kick out the hacker will probably be to manually alter the DB. Yikes.

I hope the admin team is aware of this - not sure how one would even contact them.

Well I guess I'll have to respond with my .ml account instead of my .world account.

Tried to delete this post and post it again, which is what I see from .world, but on .ml both new posts came across, but no deletes did.

So now I can't access this specific post from .world.

Federation bugs are a trip!
