Thanks for this. I need a tool to copy subscriptions over to a different account. Is there something like that?

I'm not sure what you mean, that's what this tool does. It will login to your main account, get a list of all your subscribed communities and subscribe to them on a new account on any instance that you specify.
Thanks! I made a backup Lemmy account (for if my main instance went down or had other issues) so the idea of being able to easily move communities over is great.
This is exactly what I was hoping for! I’ve created a few subtext@‘s to try out the different servers and would love to be able to sync my subscriptions.
I just tried and It works great! may I suggest to accept multiple destination accounts? perhaps with a config file, instead of a parameter? that way can be also possible to automate synchronizing the accounts that in multiple instances. Thanks for all the work.
The code is now controlled by a config file that allows multiple accounts to sync.
I was just thinking about doing something like to migrate some of my communities over (and was even planning on writing it in Python). Just ran it and it worked perfectly. Thank you, this saved me a bunch of time!
