How do you migrate days data from lemmynsfw to fedinsfw?

For communities and for individual accounts? Is it possible?

Tl;Dr: lots of mod features and it's easier to publish a podcast

What the world needs now is a genius sculptor of marble, who just makes 1:1 scale anime waifus and husbandos.

Just imagine the Thinker, but instead...

Booba.

Pantsu.

Za Warudo.

We're looking pretty gay~

Yes, this is how we normally stand in the locker room, what do you mean?

What goes on the bingo card?

I think of how people on the fediverse have mixed feelings about drawing in people from corporate social media:

Do those forums want to be federated?

I remember there was a retro instance a short while back that managed to reconfigure their frontend to look like a typical forum site.

If a forum community wanted, they could probably port (most of) their forum history to something like that.

Not posts. Relationships.

One paragraph in and the DiGiorno pattern (it's not x, it's y) is an immediate red flag.

I'm not saying humans don't do this, but it's overwhelmingly an AI thing now.

Lemmynsfw is my reference point for what happens when an instance goes down.

Users who created accounts on the new fedinsfw.app instance either started over from scratch or exported their user data from lemmynsfw.

As for our communities and posts... best case scenario, you can request the instance admin to migrate them for you, but at the community admin and user levels? The tools just don't exist yet.

Theoretically.

I've migrated a couple of accounts. But only my follows came with me, not my old posts.

Does the fediverse have a robust, user-centric "backup on site A, restore on site B" flow?

Something I still don't understand about the fediverse: how does it handle backups?

UserA@SquidgeY posts Spiderman x Whatever fan-fiction, and it's accessible to UserB@SquidgeZ.

But if SquidgeY goes down, does the entire Squidgieverse just lose access to UserA's story?

If so, I don't know that I'd want a federated AO3.

I've seen dozens of instances come and go over the years, and it sucks to imagine your favorite new story disappearing because the UserA picked the wrong instance and admin Colin393 decided not renew after The Drama happened with CorkyTheMostVampire.
