  • Piefed instances now do have a form of this for instance admins to populate new instances.

    Admins can:
    -pull the lemmyverse data and subscribe to a bunch of communities at once
    or
    -target a single lemmy or mbin instance, get the list of communities that instance hosts, and subscribe to a bunch of communities on that instance.

    Both have some tunable settings to allow admins control over how many communities are followed.

    Its not an end-user thing, but it should help with setting up new instances and them not being so ‘empty’.

    edit: typo





  • Yes. I added that myself a couple months ago 😎

    edit: you have to export your lemmy user settings. that comes down as a .json file. Then you make a piefed user, and there is an import settings in the piefed user profile.

    it will also attempt to import any blocks/bans of users/communities you had in the lemmy settings. But if the instance of piefed you are on does not ‘l\know’ about those users/communities it wont add them to bans list. But of course that means the community in question is not federated to the instance you are on, so half-dozen-of-one-six-of-the-other really.
