Now tracking Lemmy instances' age (in months)
github.com
My GitHub repo awesome-lemmy-instances (that provides a detailed table to quickly compare lemmy instances) now includes the number of months that the instance has been tracked in the MO field.
We're now limiting the "recommended instances" to just instances with MO >= 2 months.
Data is pulled from the Fediverse Observer API.
One frustration I have with Community listings has been that the list of “active” users includes bots, and posts with zero comments. I’m having a lot of trouble finding communities in instances that actually have active discussion, particularly with higher counts of unique users contributing content.
I opened a thread a few days back about that issue: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/2410183
