Wrote a Python script to sync your accounts across instances. (github.com)

After seeing the work someone else did with migrating your subscriptions across accounts. I took their code and expanded upon it to fully synchronize your Lemmy instance accounts.

Feel free to give it a try. It's been useful for me to have accounts in multiple instances with the instability problems right now from the big influx of users.

Let me know what you think. Hopefully it can help a few people.

Yeah, for anyone that gets the 502 gateway error. That means the instance was down when it tried to login/didn't respond. I'm going to revisit this part of the code later and see if I can fix/handle that happening so it at least goes through with the rest of the accounts. If it happens to you, just run it again and hopefully you'll get through at least once.

Subsequent runs actually hit the servers with less requests since you can pull most of the info you need with the initial site response and I check that before making any needed requests.

Also, someone else mentioned they had a problem with the none type thing. I'm using Python 3.11 and forgot to specify that. I'll add it to the readme when I get a chance.
