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.

      The code can be compiled to iOS with a few increments, but I don’t have the knowledge to do so

    Maybe now people can finally spread out… It’s just sad to see everyone on Lemmy.world as if it was the new Gmail or something.

        My company blocks lemmy.zip on WiFi, but lets lemmy.world through. So I tried to be on something other than lemmy.world, but still use it about half the time.

      Seriously, would it be possible to integrate Lemmy Handshake into Lemmy source code?

      I feel this should be part of the core package.

    Ooh syncs saved posts as well! Definitely downloading this

    Edit: Ah that’s not ready yet. Still very cool

      Good question. Will it sync with artemis.camp that does support a developmental API?

        I don’t think kbin (excluding artemis.camp) supports API use yet so that’ll be a no. Also kbin is different than lemmy (still federated over activitypub but different platform) so it needs to specifically be supported, won’t work with a lemmy client.

    This is REALLY cool and helpful. I just tried it with the 3 accounts I have and it worked flawlessly.

    Only suggestion would be to have the app check a servers defederated list and disregard any communities that you cannot subscribe too. This would prevent a lot of errors that happen when going through the sync. This is pretty minor as the app does seem to skip the community after the error but I suspect it would be a little faster if it just rejectected the community via internal software. Some users who are not aware of defederated communities may get confused by the errors as well.

    Maybe this isn’t very realistic? If it isn’t, never mind. :)

      I’m thinking about how to get rid of those errors, this might the solution but I think there isn’t a way to check the list of defederated instances, one thing I’ll implement soon is to expire synchronization tries after x days so the list won’t grow forever

      Glad the app helped you

        LASIM is similar and while it won’t run on iOS it will work on *Nix, Windows, and MacOS.

          Unfortunately I’m basically 99% mobile only in my personal life, and while I could drag out my laptop for this it would just be hella nice to have an iOS app for the function. Thank you for the think, though!
