Awesome project and the tool looks great - nice work!

There was an existing tool which was similar: https://federation-checker.vercel.app/

Yours is definitely nicer.

That project is a great find, thanks! A real time saver, I should have these marked up shortly.

I’ll do some more thinking on how we represent Cloudflare instances in general, I think for the time being I may just include a short note for them as people will wonder why they’re marked anyway.

Edit: This is now done, all Cloudflare instances marked and an explanation added.

Hey, thanks for your feedback. I like your idea of labeling Cloudflared services, reporting is indeed a bit tricky for those especially if they use “Always online” to serve cached copies while the instance is down. I have some ideas on how to combat that, but labeling them also makes sense.

I can add tags against services - I have done this for ani.social as a proof of concept, I think it works but I welcome feedback. Sorting through the entire list is a bit daunting and will take me a while, but I’ll get there.

Manually adjusting availability is a can of worms that I don’t want to open, I’d rather we try to find other ways to level the playing field.

I’ve updated the post to include clickable URLs. Lesson learnt that I shouldn’t rely on clients to treat domain names as links.

Absolutely!

Uptime Kuma Github: https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma

Note that I am not the creator of Uptime Kuma, https://github.com/louislam gets all the credit there.

It’s just a play on words: Le(mmy) + Stat(us) or Le Stat(us)

I think it’s short and easy to remember, the fact that it’s also the name of a famous vampire is just a bonus.

Hey thanks for your feedback. I’ve made them all URLs now.

Search and sort are tricky as it’s not something Uptime Kuma status pages can do, I’ll look into what can be done there.

Of all the ones to miss!

Thanks for pointing it out, I’ve added it now.

Have you thought of self-hosting mailcow? https://github.com/mailcow/mailcow-dockerized

It’s very easy to set up and fairly straightforward to maintain, if you have a static IP and it’s not impossible to get a PTR record then I highly recommend it. Yes you’re self hosting your own mail server but mailcow vastly simplifies this.

Alternatively plonking it on the right VPS can also work.

In practice UPC will probably have some kind of fair use policy buried in its terms of service - your best bet is to go through those terms and see what you find. Fair use typically means they will start throttling you beyond a certain point. Most ISPs keep this reasonably vague (e.g. if your usage is in excess of what they deem to be reasonable, but no actual data amounts defined).

Not all ISPs have a fair use policy though, and typically you’re better off on large ISPs where your usage doesn’t really stand out that much.

It’s not a mass exodus. There was a sizeable influx of people from Reddit to Lemmy/kbin, sure, but that’s measured in the (low) hundreds of thousands. Reddit has hundreds of millions of active users.

The reality is it’s not even close to a mass exodus, not yet.
