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

      I feel this should be part of the core package.

    Beware!

    This unsubscribed me from twenty+ communities on all of my instances. It first tried to subscribe all of my accounts to all of the communities of my largest instance, which is what I wanted it to do. One instance failed to sub to 20+ communities, which was fine, as it was a smaller instance.

    Ten minutes later, however, I got a notification that it had unsubscribed all of my other instances from those communities as well. It took me about an hour to figure out most of the ones that had been lost, and even now I think I’m missing a few.

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

    Okay, I’m not technologically illiterate, but I can’t figure out how to get this to run on my Windows laptop. I got to the link, but I don’t see what to download. Any help?

      I’ll provide the .exe tomorrow, you can download the source and compile to windows also but you would need to install flutter which is a pain in the ass

    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
