Is there a way for me to get a list of all the posts I've liked/disliked?

API docs are at https://lemmy.readme.io/reference/get_post-list - I haven't tested this, but to me it looks like you can get raw results for what you've liked by doing this (for $server set to whatever server address):

Open web developer tools and go to the "Network" tab
Load a page of Lemmy while logged in
Right-click on one of the network requests, select Copy Value -> Copy as curl
Paste the resulting value to command line in a place that has curl; that'll give you a request that has the right auth tokens and etc
Backspace over the actual URL so you can replace it with the API calls you need
Use --request GET --url "https://$server/api/v3/post/list?liked_only=true" --header 'accept: application/json' to get liked posts as JSON
Use --request GET --url "https://$server/api/v3/comment/list?liked_only=true" --header 'accept: application/json' to get liked comments as JSON

Edit: Fixed comment link

A good starting point, but since they are GET requests, there is no reason to leave the browser.

You can visit the links directly, such as (I filled in OP's instance):

https://lemm.ee/api/v3/post/list?liked_only=true
https://lemm.ee/api/v3/comment/list?liked_only=true (I fixed this one. the documentation is slightly wrong).

I've heard from somewhere that chrome doesn't render JSON nicely, so make sure to use firefox!

Other interesting parameters are saved_only and disliked_only.

Oh, true dat - yeah that is much more convenient.

Thanks. Those look like they're likes per post or comment rather than per user but it's pretty close to what I'm looking for. I'm gonna test that out when I get back from my conference!

You need to be logged in -- for me it shows all the posts / comments that I've liked. See the fix that the other person posted though; the comment link should be https://lemm.ee/api/v3/comment/list?liked_only=true
