I have a Lenovo ThinkPad T430 that is by now almost 10 years old, it runs perfectly on Linux and is a fantastic choice even today. It’s built like a tank and that Intel i5 powering it is immortal. DDR3 RAM is dirt cheap now and it takes up to 16Gb, you can swap its HDD to a SATA SSD (if not done already) and batteries for it are still cheap and plentiful.

If you’re looking for something affordable for software dev, I can’t think of a better choice for $200-$300

They really built this one right, they don’t make them like this anymore.

This is a Lemmy-ui bug, not related to CDN/cache.

I had submitted a bug report for it some time ago but it’s not that urgent in the great scheme of things so they didn’t get around to it yet: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1865

(the report speaks about this happening after you log in, but it’s the same thing).

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.

Hey, thanks for your feedback. I like your idea of labeling Cloudflared services, reporting is indeed a bit tricky for those especially if they use “Always online” to serve cached copies while the instance is down. I have some ideas on how to combat that, but labeling them also makes sense.

I can add tags against services - I have done this for ani.social as a proof of concept, I think it works but I welcome feedback. Sorting through the entire list is a bit daunting and will take me a while, but I’ll get there.

Manually adjusting availability is a can of worms that I don’t want to open, I’d rather we try to find other ways to level the playing field.

Yes it was changed some time ago: https://github.com/LemmyNet/joinlemmy-site/pull/170

I think you’re one “active user” short of being back on there:

I believe you need 5 to be listed.

I’ve updated the post to include clickable URLs. Lesson learnt that I shouldn’t rely on clients to treat domain names as links.

Thanks for your feedback. I like your idea, I’ll have a look into what I can do to make it happen.

Absolutely!

Uptime Kuma Github: https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma

Note that I am not the creator of Uptime Kuma, https://github.com/louislam gets all the credit there.

It’s just a play on words: Le(mmy) + Stat(us) or Le Stat(us)

I think it’s short and easy to remember, the fact that it’s also the name of a famous vampire is just a bonus.

Https HEAD requests - I find it yields accurate results for Lemmy and it’s extremely light on bandwidth.

Hey thanks for your feedback. I’ve made them all URLs now.

Search and sort are tricky as it’s not something Uptime Kuma status pages can do, I’ll look into what can be done there.

Of all the ones to miss!

Thanks for pointing it out, I’ve added it now.

Have you thought of self-hosting mailcow? https://github.com/mailcow/mailcow-dockerized

It’s very easy to set up and fairly straightforward to maintain, if you have a static IP and it’s not impossible to get a PTR record then I highly recommend it. Yes you’re self hosting your own mail server but mailcow vastly simplifies this.

Alternatively plonking it on the right VPS can also work.
