I actually like Flatpaks... I use dpkg/apt-get for system packages that cannot be installed in userspace, and flatpaks for desktop apps / games. Many distro's have unified ways to update them anyway (at least VanillaOS has)

We need a starterpacks community!

I think hed be pretty happy with that! That 13% may be less, but its all from 1 manufacturer or brand. They dont need to share a piece of the pie!

It was an idea indeed. Like a daily post per user, or even go as far as to synchronize it across users (so each user has a moment to post a new post). This is interesting, and I'm thinking about how to do it!

I want to be a good citizen here so if there's anything else I can help with let me know

Thanks! I also felt it was the most ethical thing to do. This way you can refer to any comments made to your post, but we don't copy comments over ourselves (which potentially can violate users privacy if they don't want their comments to leave Reddit)

It will keep the current date due to users not being able to override a timestamp, but the top part of a post shows the original date and link to the original post: https://lemmy.emerald.show/post/764

I totally agree, I just wanted to keep my posts because they mean a lot to me, I used it on my own community which at the time was empty as I just moved to lemmy.

I was a bit excited after making this, and will update the Readme with a word of warning!

It shows a top part in the post with original date and a perma link to said post like here: https://lemmy.emerald.show/post/764

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Yeah I agree, but in my case I really wanted my posts to lemmy as I often look back at them and since reddit is now blocking third party apps its basically useless. That's why I wanted to move my posts over!

 

This tool lets you migrate your own posts from any subreddit to any Lemmy community you want, I made it because I couldn't find anything else that did it the way I wanted to. I'm super happy how it turned out, I managed to get 9 years worth of posts over this way...

The GitHub link shows how to use it in case you want to!
