Script to clone subreddit to Lemmy? (lemmy.tf)

Has anyone made or found a script to scrape a subreddit and import it to a Lemmy community? There are a handful of smaller subs that I'd like to mirror over to my instance (with author attribution) but haven't found anything that works yet. https://github.com/rileynull/RedditLemmyImporter looks promising but links to a non-functioning Python script (tries to use Pushshift, which isn't working at the moment).

This is a great idea. Does anyone know all the variables a program should account for to do that? I'm no programmer, but I've enjoyed some success getting chatgpt to write what I want.
