Users per day is a bit too volatile - it's showing 2/day atm - so the bot uses Users per Week. Also, the data is from a crawler, so there's a bit of lag, and it can end up picking up on activity that's already been and gone.

Apologies to anyone browsing by 'New Comments', but I'm using this old post for a bit of cheeky testing in production.

This was linked to in a comment from the source of this post: https://mastodon.social/@Hbomberguy/146524

It'll feature naturally in a bit (the bot tries to measure trends over the previous 7 days, and that community was only created a few days ago).

Edited to remove hexbear@hexbear and add it to the filtered communities (and remove main@hexbear from filtered communities, which I'd mistakenly thought was their meta one).

The 'trending communities bot' relies on another bot, at lemmyverse.net. That bot is a bit fragile, and hasn't worked for a week: see https://data.lemmyverse.net/

If you follow the GitHub link, you can see the process failing. I'll message the bot's author at some point, unless it automatically rights itself (it often does).

I've read that the same tech stack is intended to be used for Lemmy. Given how impressive the performance of the linked site is, it suggests very promising things for when it's implemented.

Yeah - it's what I use for testing stuff (it's a bit underpowered though: 1 core CPU, 1 GB Ram). I made that comment partly to verify how it would be announced back to me from .world (except I forgot to subscribe first). Anyway, now mastodon.social is aware of me, and is very keen on telling me about accounts that have been deleted (I swear that site has deleted more accounts that could ever have been created).

I looked up lemmy.ml out of interest (I realise you aren't classifying it as generalist). Anyway: it says that the server is in France.

Also, if you're able to lookup by IP instead of URL, you can bypass any CloudFlare confusion, and confirm that LW is hosted in Finland.
