In case it helps anyone else, here’s a little bookmarklet I created using ChatGPT which performs the chore of searching your chosen Lemmy instance for the names of subreddits to which you’re subscribed.
(Modify instance
to your chosen Lemmy instance.)
javascript:(function(){
if (window.location.href !== "https://www.reddit.com/subreddits") {
alert("You must be on the reddit.com/subreddits page.");
return;
} else {
var instance = "lemmy.world";
var links = document.getElementsByTagName('a');
for (var i = 0; i < links.length; i++) {
if (links[i].href.indexOf('+') !== -1) {
var url = links[i].href;
var parameters = url.split('+');
var newUrl = '';
for (var j = 1; j < parameters.length; j++) {
newUrl += 'https://' + instance + '/search/q/' + parameters[j] + '/type/Communities/sort/TopAll/listing_type/All/community_id/0/creator_id/0/page/1\n';
}
navigator.clipboard.writeText(newUrl).then(function() {
alert("Copy operation successful! Paste results at openallurls.com (or other multiple URL opening service.)");
}, function() {
alert("Copy operation unsuccessful!");
});
break;
}
}
}
})();
I got the idea from this bookmarklet which copies your Lemmy subscriptions if you decide to change instances.
I think it could be improved by providing links to something like https://lemmyverse.net/communities to search instead, but I couldn’t figure out how to pass the subreddit name parameter in the Url.
Whoa, this could be useful!
Um, unfortunately I know very little about JavaScript, nor how to get that piece of code to run. Any advice on that?
Btw, it would also be highly useful to copy over the various subs in my 12+ MultiReddits.
This explains how to add Javascript as a bookmark:
Remember to modify
var instance = "lemmy.world";
tovar instance = "lemm.ee";
for your Lemmy instance.
