It's actually even easier than that. Instead of setting up an tool to make up requests for the API, you can just set up a bridge that will dump everything right into your database. The wonders of federation.

If you can set up a Lemmy instance and apply a little elbow grease to manually follow a few instances, that's pretty much all you need to have the data come in automatically. You'd probably need more knowledge about how to actually get the data out of the DB than the initial setup, which could be done by somebody just copying and pasting text.
