@slipstream oh cool-- I don't know PHP at all. Here's my Ruby script: https://github.com/sts10/masto-counter/blob/master/counter.rb
I'm thinking of changing it to focus more on secure and open mid-sized instances to help folks find instances to join/suggest to friends?
@schlink There's already a few things for that, https://tooter.today being one, and I believe something more official (it'll be run by @Gargron ) is being worked on.
@schlink Oops, seems http://tooter.today isn't HTTPS for whatever reason. There should be no excuses for it these days! :/
@slipstream yes! Excited about those. I'm kind of hoping for something like a choose-your-own-adventure / this linux distribution chooser: https://distrochooser.de/?l=2
@schlink Aw yiss, beating those decent folk over at Social.Targaryen.house :)
@Mainebot ha yeah I think that was a recent victory
@schlink Have you seen my stats script? https://gist.github.com/Wack0/b5661777c76e79785c2187fafe331c93
