How to export all of my data of my lemmy account?

Hi,

I want to export all of my data including all the post, comment, post I upvoted, list of communities I subscribed to, log of my IP address, all of my logins. In short all the data I gave to the instance I am using.

is there a way to export all of these data to a JSON file or something?

Thank you in advance!

Maybe I’m in over my head, but I’ve been learning rust for a few months, and this seems like a fun thing to implement.

Go Ahead. I'm still struggling to find the time to learn Rust. I read the first few chapters of the book, but I'm a bit stuck due to too many side-projects. 😆

With Lemmy, I'd advise you to ask first. Lots of open-source projects gladly accept merge requests... But I think the Lemmy developers/community is a bit different. As far as I know a few people have been burned because they put in days of work and their requests didn't get accepted. That shouldn't stop you, I'd just say ask the devs first so you don't waste your time.

Thanks for letting me know. I’ll definitely ask them first. Good luck with your side projects 😁
