What would folks think about using this tool to clone the existing subreddit? Losing the historical content would really suck. I make heavy use of subreddit search for solving technical problems.

rileynull/RedditLemmyImporter: 🔥 Anti-Reddit Aktion 🔥

This project translates Reddit API responses into a PL/pgSQL script which loads the data into a Lemmy database.

In other words, it takes Reddit posts/comments and puts them into Lemmy.

PS I am a pretty newb person and last time I tried to do much with a db I didn’t get very far so please no one rely on me to get this done. I will see about giving it a shot but given the short timelines might not get it in time.

Yup, I’m all for it. There’s not many days left where this can be done.
