Support import of GDPR Reddit export

Open yuletide opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Love this client! I just discovered it, sadly too late to export my Apollo data now that it's closed. However I do have a complete archive export of my reddit data generated here: https://www.reddit.com/settings/data-request

Would there be a way to import those CSV files to repopulate multi-reddits and subscriptions? There is both subscribed_subreddits.csv and multireddits.csv

Edit: I took a first pass which is working -- if anyone knows these patterns better than I and sees issues please add comments

Faster work around set your ios date and time before July 1st (say June 29th). You should have acess to apollo export again (although you won't be able to browse reddit).

This won't work for those of us who deleted Apollo and now can't login, or for those who never used it. But yes a good option for anyone who has the app still. Otherwise this PR is helpful for everyone else who want a top notch UX for lemmy.

Ok just tried the new multireddit flow and it is very slick

Closing in favor of multireddit import :)
