I feel like logging in with Facebook and Google on sites is just as much about them gaining access to scrape more info about you as it is for your “convenience.” While there could be value with Lemmy, it’s not nearly what it is with Facebook and Google. So I would say not likely.

I’m amazed Spice is still around. I don’t know why; I guess I just hadn’t seen it or heard or thought about it in years.

My bad. I somehow misread and misunderstood that was the problem. I see someone else helped you get there. Hopefully the rest is easier. 😅

Run the program. You should start out with Download highlighted at the top. Put in your Lemmy instance and credentials where it asks. Hit the Download button, which will download a JSON file - it’ll pull stuff like subscriptions from your Lemmy account. At the top, tab over to Upload. Put in the new instance and credentials, and hit Upload. It should pull the JSON file it created when you downloaded and “set up” your new account you’re migrating to. You’ll still need to go in and adjust some things, but your subscriptions (for example) should be there.

EDIT: To clarify, Download is for downloading your “old” account info, and Upload is for uploading that info to your “new” account.

Do you know what instance it was hosted on? The only one I’m seeing was created 11 hours ago with two videos, so I’m assuming that’s not it. It’s possible the instance went down. I’d say it’s possible it was defederated, but we’re on different instances, so it’d have to be a big whoopsie to have been removed by multiple instances.

A decade old gaming PC (that was mid-tier at best back then), a PS5 that’s not technically mine, a Switch, and an OG Xbox One. Tell me about it. 😂

What, you don’t like to install the Web Store through a separate extension crx download, mess around in the settings, and enable dev mode? Wait til you hear what you have to do to get DRM working (Spotify, Netflix, Hulu, etc). Hint: It’s a separate zipped download of Widevine that you have to extract deep in the AppData folder, assuming you’re on Windows.

While I agree with this, it’s kind of a pain in the ass if you use extensions. You have to roundabout install the Web Store through a crx download, tinkering in the settings and enabling dev mode, then use that extension to install other extensions. And may the cosmos grant you mercy if you need to use DRM for Spotify, Netflix, Hulu, etc, and have to download the Widevine DRM stuff separately and unzip it deep in the AppData folder.

It’s not impossible, but I guess I’m just saying that this probably isn’t going to be the answer for the everyday, average person.

I don’t have an answer, but I am interested. That said, apparently Firefox can now import and use Chrome extensions with the new update. I have yet to try it myself and assume your mileage will vary.

Probably my favorite track from the album. 😁

Fair enough. May your future internet interactions trend more positive. Have a good rest of your night, day, or whatever time it is where you’re at.

You came out aggressively swinging from comment one, pal. Not sure what’s got you at an 11, but I guess I could have been nicer. That’s my bad.

Ok, bud. 😂

The line you quoted as “editorializing” (“how the children obtained guns”) is literally a line pulled directly from the article subheader. In other words, there’s no editorialization from OP. Like, you do realize that… right? By your replies, I can’t tell if you’re just trolling hard or that oblivious.

I was going to say I slightly disagree, but then I thought about it some more and realized they probably just see it as SteamOS in the same way Android doesn’t make people think about Linux either.
