I found this site that tracks uptime of lemmy services. They have an API that helps you construct a query in the WUI.
Or you can use cURL to get the uptime of all known lemmy instances
curl 'https://api.fediverse.observer/' -X POST -H 'Accept: */*' -H 'Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' --data-raw '{"query":"query{\n nodes (softwarename: \"lemmy\") {\ndomain uptime_alltime\n }\n}\n"}'

@mobiuscoffee@sh.itjust.works found one that monitors uptime!
Anyone know who runs that site? Do they have an account here on lemmy?
Ideally I’d want something that I just feed a config file, a sqlite db file, tell it to “run”, and then it spits-out the uptime for each site
Interesting. So I guess that functionality is disabled when the admin has a non-null list set for allowed
So if a user searches for a community on another instance, does that mean that the instance that they’re following is automatically added to the linked
list or no?
If so, does that happen when they subscribe or when they search?
Linked just means they actively federate
What does “actively federate” mean? What does it mean to be “inactively federating”?
What impact does it have on the user of these instances?

Regarding “federation state”: You can have a blocklist, then Lemmy will federate with every instance except blocked ones. Or have an allowlist, then it will only federate with the allowed ones. If neither is set then it also federate with everything. Using allowlist and blocklist together doesnt make much sense, then it would only federate with allowed instances which are not in the blocklist.
…but this doesn’t address what linked
does

Thanks. See also https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-stats-crawler/issues/4
wait but there’s three states. If it’s not allowlist
then it’s either open
or blocklist
– according to the documentation.
Are you suggesting that if both are null then the federation state is set to open
?
Thanks! I can’t find any field that specifies open
or blocklist
or allowlist
but I do see arrays for linked
and allowed
and blocked
. My best-guess is:
allowed
is not null, then the server’s federation is in allowlist
stateblocked
is not null, then the server’s federation is in blocklist
state…but I could be totally wrong
And I don’t know how to determine if the server’s federation state is open
.
It would be good if we had three example servers – one in each state (open
, blocklist
, and allowlist
) so that I could compare the API’s output for each.
Edit: /u/Nutomic clarified this on GitHub:

The sourcecode is here afaict https://codeberg.org/wintermute/lemmymap
It says they use lemmy-stats-crawler, but I can’t get it to run on Debian 11. And I can’t open issues on that repo.
thanks! Unfortunately that site is basically unuseable for me, but perhaps if we dig into their code, we’ll find how they figure out the federation state…
anyway, I’m posting here to figure out what data can be queried. Otherwise, it’s manual entry and that’s a maintenance nightmare.
that’s my issue ;)
