Transfer community from vlemmy to new instance? (lemmy.film)

As most of you may have heard, vlemmy randomly vanished.

I had started a few communities there. Is there a way to migrate them to a new instance (ideally along with their posts/subscribers/etc).

Thanks!

Not only that, depending on what ended up on their home machine and how scared they got, they may never want to openly acknowledge that vlemmy was theirs out of fear that something gets linked back to them. They could very well be here now posting etc without any interest in revisiting vlemmy and what ended up on their machine.

We'll never hear back from vlemmy ... and ultimately that's probably a good thing, though I hope the admin is doing ok.
