People were talking about a script that would go out and subscribe to a bunch of communities. As long as that's better enough should be able to operate under that umbrella?
I did this on my instance. You create a new user and give the script those credentials, it goes out and subs to all the trending communities across the various instances so now my instance has a big mish-mash of communities federated, not just the ones I originally subscribed to on my personal user.
That's exactly what I need. Could you share the script you use?
I finally found the script, sorry for the massive delay.

It's named "Lemmy Community Seeder" which is probably why I couldn't find it anywhere, I wasn't searching for those terms.
I can't seem to find it in a Google search now so I'll take a look at my server in case I ran the script there and saved a copy. There appear to be a lot of similar tools now to assist with people moving over from Reddit but this script was really quick and handy.
