The app that synchronizes multiple lemmy accounts so you can migrate and keep backup accounts across instances, it’s opensource and free, currently working in android and windows.
It’s in homologation now and anyone can test, any feedbacks are welcome as always.

Perfect timing! My instance is shutting down, so I need to sync up my subscriptions!
Cheers
Is there a plan to include syncing block lists in the future?
it doesn’t already? uff i will have to use the Python utility
I assume it doesn’t work for lemmy -> kbin or kbin -> lemmy?
Yeah, that’s what I’m looking for what with sync. Though I assume once kbin gets it’s api going that’ll change.
can someone explain how exactly Lemmy works? I was told it was something like an alternative to reddit, but I don’t understand what instances are
imagine each instance to a reddit equivalent. but instances are also federated with each other.
this way you have access to other ‘reddits’. each instance has its own rules, some are specialized to a topic, and some are generic.
as a general rule, it is better to choose a fairly small instace to spread the load.
to add more drama, some instances blocks / defederate from other instances. but you will learn this with time…
