See the linked page for information about how it works, limitations, etc. and I'll of course answer any questions below!

As I have stated in the release section, this software is alpha so please don't be afraid to report bugs!

Releases are here: https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim/releases

Right now the program only supports Lemmy BE 0.18.1-rc9, but new releases will try to support new versions as they are released. The Lemmy API is changing a ton right now, but I'll try to keep up.

The culture appearing in the Lemmy/Kbin universe reminds me of some gaming communities where people help each other, some by giving advice or tips they've learned, others by using their skills to create addon tools to solve a problem.

For sure! The whole reason I made this was because I saw so many posts asking for a way to do this.

That said, it's obviously a stop-gap until the devs add an official way to do this via Lemmy itself, but the last time I saw them talk about that it was (understandably) pretty low on their priority list - and I'm not nearly comfortable enough in rust or databases to make a PR to Lemmy itself - at least not yet.
