Hi everyone, I’m having trouble finding a Lemmy instance that works well for me. The main instance I use is down, and most others are too slow. I’m wondering if there’s a way to choose an instance based on latency and the least blocked users. I found two relevant issues on the awesome-lemmy-instances GitHub page: issue #12 about choosing an instance based on latency and issue #17 about choosing an instance with the least blocked users. However, I’m not sure how to implement these into the main script to generate a readme with a few recommended instances. Does anyone have any advice or tips on how to choose a Lemmy instance based on these criteria? Thanks in advance for your help!
No, haven’t heard of it.
alright bad guess then 👍 btw that repo has not been updated for 2 weeks. I can suggest lemmyverse.net for it.
It doesn’t seem to provide any of the two stats I’m interested in. Actually it has to be something I can run easily myself since the latency needs to be calculated from where I’m at.
this site contains country info too. maybe you can use that. https://the-federation.info/platform/73
