Comparison of Lemmy Instances (github.com)

I created a repo on GitHub that has a table comparing all the known lemmy instances

Why?

When I joined lemmy, I had to join a few different instances before I realized that:

  1. Some instances didn't allow you to create new communities
  2. Some instances were setup with an allowlist so that you couldn't subscribe/participate with communities on (most) other instances
  3. Some instances disabled important features like downvotes
  4. Some instances have profanity filters or don't allow NSFW content

I couldn't find an easy way to see how each instance was configured, so I used lemmy-stats-crawler and GitHub actions to discover all the Lemmy Instances, query their API, and dump the information into a data table for quick at-a-glance comparison.

I hope this helps others with a smooth migration to lemmy. Enjoy :)

I've stumbled upon this site that seems to be similar?

Thanks for sharing! How did you find that one? Do you know who runs it? I really, really like that they have an uptime monitor.
