I've been working on a simple opt-in solution, primarily for Lemmy end users like me (but also helpful for admins), to easily check the status/health of their favourite instance.

🌎 lemmy-meter.info

You can find the details of the implementation in lemmy-meter github repo.

❓ @admins: would you be interested in adding your instance to lemmy-meter?

You don't need to do anything except confirming - I'll handle the rest. It should only take a few minutes for your instance to show up in lemmy-meter.

Out of the box it will send only 4 HTTP GET requests per minute to your instance. However that is totally configurable if it sounds too much or too little.

The larger Lemmy world terrifies me. It's like a technological eldritch horror that I have somehow survived entering it's domain.

sure, go for it. That said, 4/minute seems a little high, mostly just because usual guidance is that a heartbeat check should be done about once a minute for web services, but 4 is also not unserviceable.

To be precise, it's not 4 requests to the same endpoint.

lemmy-meter probes 4 endpoints each once per minute:

The landing page
api.getPosts (limit=1)
api.getComments (limit=1)
api.getCommunities (limit=1)

That's b/c I've frequently experienced cases when the landing page works but some mobile APIs don't and vice versa.

Hope that makes sense.

As I said, if after some time you feel like this is too much load, reach out to me and I can easily configure lemmy-meter to probe less frequently.

Oh, ok, if its four different calls for different end points then that makes sense.
