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!
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
