 @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | But you will face problems when using DASH in a few months | 13:04:05 |
| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | Problems = paying for each additional TB past your limit | 13:04:26 |
 Nihilist OLD ACCOUNT !!!! | * Imo the selection/monitoring/ranking on public instances should be refined a bit. Score should include invidious service uptime (current), the uptime regarding YouTube blockage circumvention, and the response time to load a video. Because I can tell some public invidious instances are on VPSes by how slow they are lol | 13:04:36 |

| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | * Not for that reason, no. (Can't say for sure, im not managing the instances) | 13:06:35 |

| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | I would honestly ditch the total users stat. "Active users last month" cumulated over the past 3 months would make for a much better stat imo | 13:07:45 |

You just wanna be on top 😆 There is nothing wrong with competition in my opinion. All instances want to be on top of course, but "racing" for the top means that every instance will improve in the process. | 13:06:58 |
| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | * I would honestly ditch the total users stat. "Active users last month" cumulated over the past 3 or 6 months would make for a much better stat imo | 13:08:03 |
| Nihilist OLD ACCOUNT !!!! | Could also be indicative of which instance is overloaded and to tell users to go on the next best instance Weidenwiesel: | 13:08:16 |
| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | I agree with the response time, some sited are just maddening slow, for different reasons (including location) | 13:12:30 |
| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | But its probably impossible to provide a valid measurement for that | 13:13:30 |
| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | Example: For US users, my instance in Ukraine may very well be much slower than for users in Germany | 13:14:00 |
| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | Which response time do you use now/ | 13:14:12 |
| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | * Which response time do you use now? | 13:14:22 |
| Nihilist OLD ACCOUNT !!!! | I was thinking how long it takes for a curl to complete | 13:14:30 |
| Nihilist OLD ACCOUNT !!!! | On the homepage of an iv instance | 13:14:42 |
| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | But from where? If you do that from local host you're basically just measuring psql performance | 13:15:16 |
| Nihilist OLD ACCOUNT !!!! | No I meant for the public instances, how quickly is it loading the page basically, that indicates if the server is overloaded or not. If the curl takes 15 seconds to complete I think the message is clear lol | 13:16:35 |
| Nihilist OLD ACCOUNT !!!! | There must be a better way to check that, but u get the idea | 13:17:01 |
| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | Yeah I get it. | 13:17:29 |
| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | Maybe a better ides would be "active users" past 5mins vs estimated max users | 13:17:59 |
| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | And additionally some basic response checks | 13:18:52 |
| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | Merge that into a "load percentage" | 13:19:15 |

Maybe a better ides would be "active users" past 5mins vs estimated max users Sounds great, wanna create the git issue for it ? | 13:19:21 |
| Nihilist OLD ACCOUNT !!!! | I think there's an ongoing git issue to improve the public instance list ranking already | 13:19:56 |
| Nihilist OLD ACCOUNT !!!! | * I think there's an ongoing git issue to improve the public instance list ranking already, could be suggested there | 13:20:10 |
| @weidenwiesel:matrix.org | Dunno, there are so many questions left unanswered | 13:20:18 |
