MODERATORS
Principally it is possible if you can iterate over all the posts and comments and inject them into the database of their new home.
That wont work at all. Each subscriber needs to get the update which is not a feature of Lemmy at the moment. Simply injecting posts will only copy over content.
I think the suggestion in whole was "do that specifically for the content, and for the users make a post on the old instance linking to the new, pin it and lock the community so the users have to migrate themselves, since dragging them with you is impossible currently."
