Oh wow I wish I knew that last week..
In fairness, LASIM has only been out for 5 days :)
Oh how I wish I knew that two days ago
Man, in the ol' days (20 days ago) I did this all manually.
Kids these days have it easy!
For me, the ol' days was yesterday, when I came to terms with the idea that VLemmy wasn't coming back, and I manually copied over all my subscriptions from a duplicate account.
This is fantastic! If .world hadn't gotten back up and running I'd have had to use it for sure.
Am I just super dumb? I don't see instructions on how to actually run LASIM? The instructions say that's the first thing you do but don't say how
The linked GitHub has a "releases" section. Download for your platform. Double click executable.
Thank you! I've somehow never used this "releases" section of GitHub before 🙃
This could be useful, however, I'm not sure if I want to merge my accounts. I made 3 to split the communities I want to follow, but I notice I mainly use 1. (this one ;) )
Also, no clue (yet) how the ConfigParser handles spaces in arguments. (and how to solve this if the answer is 'not well')
I like to have one main account I use for most of my interaction, but I've learned recently and the hard way why I should maintain a backup.
Are there options for Kbin?
Not to my knowledge, but I also haven't checked (or looked at how kbin's API works)
Kbin's API is actually unfinished. Hence the lack of apps.
In fairness to kbin, Lemmy's API is mostly undocumented and changing constantly 😅
I would if down the line an export option will be natively available by lemmy or kbin like how you can import and export bookmarks files.

I'll throw my code into the ring as well. I posted it over in the Python community and have been using it myself.
It's not the most user friendly yet though. Still working on improving it as I get time though and open to suggestions/requests.
What’s the story with vlemmy? I stopped being able to log in a few days ago.
The site went down and the admin vanished. So far, no one know what happened.
Self hosting at its finest!
Admin probably forgot to set restart always in the compose file. Happens to me all the time :-)
Shame none of these support 2FA yet
FYI LASIM now supports 2FA login
Cautiously assuming it's a false positive, but LASIM is throwing some warnings from VirusTotal for the Windows version, saying it's a password stealer (VHO:Trojan-PSW.Win32.Agent.gen). Given the nature of what it does, I can understand it being flagged. Nothing when scanned directly with AV. Figured it was worth at least mentioning.
This was reported a few days ago: https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim/issues/15
You can see my responses - I'm not sure there is much I can do, but I'm open to suggestions.
As stated in the linked issue, the most secure thing is to build it yourself or download directly from GitHub actions vs trusting the binaries I publish to releases.
No worries. It just felt irresponsible not to say something.
