Mind empowering my laziness and sharing that query?
I was also planning on bulk locking all their communities, to avoid any isolated islands of people that don't realize the community is gone.
I'm still putting that together, but it's basically something like:
UPDATE post set url = thumbnail_url where thumbnail_url like 'https://dubvee.org/pictrs/image/%' and url like 'https://lemm.ee/pictrs/image/%'
For the Kbin users to clear out their avatar/banners, I just did:
UPDATE person set avatar=NULL, banner=NULL where instance_id=(select id from instance where domain='kbin.run')
UPDATE community set icon=NULL, banner=NULL where instance_id=(select id from instance where domain='kbin.run')
...and will update that for lemm.ee
I'm working on a Bun/NodeJS script to download the avatars, icons, and banners for all the lemm.ee users/communities, upload them to my pictrs, and then update the DB with the new values referencing the local images.
Prob gonna have to break that up into two steps so I can download and file the images before lemm.ee goes down and upload/assign them after (so they're not overwritten by federation).
Not sure if I'm gonna do that for comment / post body images. Basically, I just want the archived communities to look nice.
