Thanks for sharing! How did you find that one? Do you know who runs it? I really, really like that they have an uptime monitor.

I think the description would be too long and clutter the table. I’d be down for descriptions on-hover, but I’d have to switch platforms (from GitHub markdown) for that afaik.

You can also get the country from this list. I don’t know how they do it (maybe IP lookup)

• https://https//the-federation.info/platform/73

It’s documented here:

• https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/federation_getting_started.html

By default users on an instance will be able to talk with communities/users on all other instances. This only changes if the instance admin puts hosts in the allowed list or disables federation.

If you add instances to the blocked list then users will be able to talk with all other instances, except those on the blocked list

You mean like https://mastodon.world and https://lemmy.world? Do you have other examples?

Not sure who the approved reviewers are

That’s @[email protected]

I think at the top, just above the “Recommended” <h2> add:

For a more detailed comparison of Lemmy instances, see:

<ul>
<li><a href="https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances">Awesome-Lemmy-Instances on GitHub</a></li>
<li><a href="https://the-federation.info/platform/73">the-federation.info Lemmy Instances Page</a></li>
<li><a href="https://lemmymap.feddit.de/">Feddit's Lemmymap</a></li>
</ul>

After you create an account, you can find communites across all instances using <a href="https://browse.feddit.de/">Feddit's Lemmy Community Browser</a>

oh shit I wish I knew that existed before XD

I’m literally just asking the instance’s API how many users it has:

• https://links.dartboard.social/api/v3/site

Check the users_active_month field. How your instance calculates that is a question for the lemmy devs ;D

I see TypeScript and get scared. Personally, I do think that the join-lemmy.org/instances page should link to:

1. My table comparison https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances
2. The Lemmy Community Browser (to find communities across all instances) https://browse.feddit.de/
3. The Lemmy Map https://lemmymap.feddit.de/
4. The federation’s lemmy page (with another table comparing instances) https://the-federation.info/platform/73

Can anyone with TypeScript experience make this PR for us? Here’s the relevant file:

• https://github.com/LemmyNet/joinlemmy-site/blob/main/src/shared/components/instances.tsx

Because I had a bug. Fixing now :)

Hmm, I see community_creation_admin_only is set to false on the API. I’ll look into this, thanks for letting me know :)

• https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/api/v3/site

Edit: should be fixed now. Please let me know if you find any other issues :)
