I have seen all this stuff about "migrating to lemmy" so here I am. But what you'd really need to do isn't just tell everyone to go make a new account, but mirror all the existing content for communities. That's what differentiates "migrating" from "making a new account". Is this possible? Planned? Contemplated?

Is it even legal within the rules of Reddit? That would involve scraping an entire community for content and moving it over.
