Follow up on a previous post: [DISCUSS] Recent momentary outages
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.
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.
PS: I wasn't sure how to reach out to the admins short of messaging them individually.

Sure! I don't think we need it, but the users might like it.

Can see here the impact of our cloudflare tunnel dropping briefly =) I think they rerouted us due to maintenance.

Oh, neat!
On another note: ~2 mins looks like rather a "long" window of maintenance/disruption for what Cloudflare is 🙈

If it's just checking if the server is online, once every 5 minutes seems plenty sufficient to me.
