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.
Oh didn't know about that. It doesn't look too accurate though. My instance was defederated by some guy and it isn't showing. Anyway thank you, glad you like it!
Does defed.xyz checking other softwares like Akkoma? For my instance, defed.xyz shows only dubvee.org is defederated, which is correct.
But in the other hand, federation-checker shows only matrix.rocks defederated, which is a Akkoma instance. I'm not sure is it correct since IDK where is Akkoma's defederated list but both sites showing different sites.
To be fair this is the first time I hear about Akkoma, I wasn't even aware of its existence.
Right now the Investigator queries all instances in the awesome-lemmy-instancecs repo, which means it only queries instances running the Lemmy software. I didn't really consider this, but evidently this also cuts off Kbin, Mastodon and so on.
To expand on this I would need a list of all fediverse / threadiverse instances, or at least the onest that federate with Lemmy. I don't know if such a list exists out there.
Alright I don't really care other than Lemmy anyways. Maybe kbin. IDK your tool is the best among the other ones, so well done 🙏
Thanks a lot! I'll see if I can make any improvements on this front, but I can't make any promises.
It also shows pawb.social defederated from sh.itjust.works but I swear I've seen comments by them.
Might be old stuff dating before the defederation? Idk, I don't think I can get my hands on any historical log. I just know that it happened, can't know when though.
I was taking about the other one actually. Didn't get a chance to try yours.
Oh my bad then. Hopefully I'll be able to fix mine soon enough.
My site is back online (albeit under a different domain for now, see edited post) and indeed it says you guys and pawb.social are federated.
Nice! Thanks for the update.
You might want to check your data again, lemmygrad is the latest blocked instance on discuss.tchncs.de link :)
