Hey. I’m new here. Does anyone know if something like that exists ? If not maybe that would be a cool side project for me

edit2: found out that https://sub.rehab/settings/ allows you to do the same thing, but better :P
The other fella covered the more general user-generated approach, but the WefWef app has a way to migrate from Apollo using the JSON export tool they (Apollo) provide. Looks like the grab the JSON dump, parse out the subs, then generate a big list of community search links in-app.
Expanding on that, a potentially good idea to make this as easy as possible is to find a way of having the user export a list of subs from their Reddit account (either by biting the bullet and using the API or developing a user script or browser extension). Allow clients to register an anonymous user ID (to avoid tying identities together too hard) with such a list. Then the clients can update this user with what communities they join via what instances, along with what instances they joined at all.
Then your service would feed them recommendations.“Users from /r/programming[,…] tend to join
programming@programming.dev” and/or “Reddit users like you usually join the fediverse through programming.dev”.It may be worth DMing some of the Lemmy client developers to see if they’d be interested in such a service or if they have any better ideas. Smart people, them.
If you do end up doing work on this, please do post any cool ideas you have! It’s a neat domain space.
Hope you have a great day, good luck!
Thanks a lot. Ive started working on a little something. And learning svelte at the same time :) Ill share if the tool is useful
1st basic version :
Very nice! Smart thinking using the multireddit link there, never even knew that existed! 😅
I think the next step is to secure VC funding or something. Yada yada yada, then collect your profits! /s
How are you liking Svelte?
For context ive been a react developer for ~4 years. Even though this project is very basic, im impressed with how intuitive svelte is ! I like everything about it so far and the DX is great !
I realise I wasn’t clear enough. I mean a tool that gets a reddit user list of subscription and try to find the equivalent on Lemmy.
There are some websites (or at least one website and maybe a Lemmy Thread or so), where they linked up possible alternatives to sub reddits
I’m not sure, if I can find a link, I’ll try
Edit: ha, that went quick.
https://sub.rehab/thank you !
Wow that website is stuttering while scrolling.
