Hi, non- lemm.ee newcomer here. I’m trying to import settings from srlpnk. It’s throwing an immediate error, not a timeout (though I have gotten some rate limit messages). I took a look at the json file, and I think the problem may be trying to reference avatar etc images on slrpnk.net. Looks like I may be able to delete the strings and replace them with :null, but with you guys getting slammed I didn’t want to further gum up the works. Figured I’d run it by yas for input first. No rush, thanks!

Just pinning this - we are getting a little battered by people importing their data from lemm.ee.
If you get a timeout or a rate limit error, please try using a VPN to upload it 😊
If this doesn’t work, feel free to shoot us a PM or let us know!

Hey - lots of new things we’ve not seen before being uncovered. Feel free to give it a shot (backup the old version first!) And let us know if it works or not. If that is the issue, I’ll log an issue with the lemmy devs as I’m sure it’ll help someone in the future

Well, my instinct was wrong, still says error importing file. Could be a number of other things (version mismatch maybe, the export file is from back in January) but without being able to see the actual error I’m just shooting in the dark. If you have the time and are willing to help troubleshoot that would be awesome, if not I understand. Worst case scenario is that I spend a few minutes rebuilding subscriptions and a long long time rebuilding the block list lol. Thanks either way!

Well I made a fresh export now that slrpnk is back up, and everything imported without issue. So that’s cool.
