@OpenSource @selfhosted Is there a way to move all my data off Facebook and import it into my #friendica instance? That would include my posts, pictures, videos etc?

if enough people are looking for this (and are willing to provide anonymized examples of what facebook's data export looks like) I might be willing to write a script for it, same with any other platform!

@dannym Thank you :)
I will see if I can create an account and export the data from it. What would be the best way to share the data with you?

I don't think you can move your data off Facebook, but you can make a copy of it and transfer it to another service.

@mingu @OpenSource @selfhosted Sorry for stupid question but once the data is exported from Facebook, is there an easy way to import it into Friendica?

@LordChaos82 @OpenSource @selfhosted I don't know honestly, I don't use Friendica. It looks like they did think about it before: https://github.com/friendica/friendica/issues/5212
