lemmony: A better "All" browsing experience for small Lemmy instances - lemmy.management

I made this tool to help self-hosters, new admins, or smaller instances have more global and updated content on their instances. This is the similar to Lemmy Community Seeder [https://github.com/Fmstrat/lcs] but is designed to be run periodically to capture new communities, and include EVERYTHING by default.

I ran this and it causes a lot of load. Only issue is any user can tun it so basically lemmy servers are pretty much open to be ddos attacked by a user subscribing to everything it seems. I have a pretty good server and it consumed 30% of the cpu continuously just adding all of lemmy.world. Unclear how much disk space I just commited myself to also. Small instances would be decimated by this.
