[Resolved] lemmyverse.net looks to be unmaintained and is becoming increasingly less useful (lemmy.world)

As you may have noticed, the crawler at https://lemmyverse.net isn't picking up anything from instances on versions 0.19.4 or 0.19.5.

The Issue itself is easily fixed, and there's already a PR for it from lemm.ee's admin, but there's been no response from the lemmyverse developer.

Does anyway have any other ways of contacting him?
If this continues (I realise 2 weeks isn't that long), is anyone interested in forking the code and hosting it on a new domain?

Thanks.

Thank you for this post!

Oh that's a shame. I used that website a lot to find active communities across instances

I really hope so. It's a handy website, hope it'll get some new love...

.... I can just update it. I'll check the PR today....

I think people weren't sure if you were around (or who the dev was in general), and so they started thinking about how to keep the project alive. I'm sure people would much rather use this site instead of moving :)

Thank you for updating it!

No problems mate :) As long as I'm still paying for hosting I'll attempt to keep it updated.

I sometimes go awol and work on other stuff, pinging me here usually works 😊

I'm also glad that people still use and find the site valuable

Might you consider including your Lemmy username on the about page? I feel like most people don't know that lemmyverse.net is run by tgxn.

Thanks for pointing it me, I didn't know about this otherwise 🤣

[–] iso@lemy.lol 3 points 11 months ago

Good to hear you're ok buddy 🙏

[–] tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 11 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I have now accepted the PR from @sunaurus@lemm.ee :) The changes are rolling out and the crawlers are crawling hard 24/7 again.

Sorry for the couple week delay, hit my up here next time :D

[–] Blaze@reddthat.com 3 points 11 months ago

Great, thank you ! 🙏

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago

Hooray! Thank you for your continued support of this excellent tool!

[–] meldrik@lemmy.wtf 6 points 11 months ago

I hope this gets fixed. I use that website a lot and also direct new users towards it.

[–] tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It still works no? What's wrong if with it 😆

[–] tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 5 points 11 months ago

Right, I've calmed down and had a read. I did notice the instance count reducing. 😅 It makes sense .19 instances can't be crawlel. I'll see about the PR tonight
