activitypub-relays's Issues

Consider linking to delightful list with Relay projects

Hi there,

From https://codeberg.org/fediverse/delightful-activitypub-development/#relays we link to your README. Maybe you are willing to link back to the delightful list (it was formerly hosted at Feneas, and is related to Fediverse Party, where the checkmarked entries are added to the website).

(There's also a website page based on the repo README, as it is part of Delightful Club: https://delightful.club/delightful-activitypub-development/#relays )

New relay

Could you please add my relay to the working relay list?

https://relay.freespeech.club/actor

How does one check whether a mastodon relay work ?

New relay!

We also want to help the relay network and now offer a server for it.

Relay so far rather for European servers, but follow still open for all.
Contact via: @[email protected]

Link: https://relay.douzepoints.social/inbox

Note about relay.mastodon.kr

They are enforcing the allowlist to restrict who can broadcast to the relay.

Bad timing checking en.relay.friendi.ca ?

https://en.relay.friendi.ca/inbox

Howdy!

This should be running just fine.

Glad you're maintaining a list like this!

Thanks.

Hey! You can add this relay too, please?

https://relay.mistli.net/

it's a new, more generalistic relay, for english speakers...

Thanks in advance!

Suggestion - Either an "open but check rules" section, or suggest that admins should check the relay info out before adding anything

Hi there,

Always nice that someone's providing useful resources, thank you for that!

I run en.relay.friendi.ca and it seems that many new instance admins are just cutting & pasting lists like these in to their systems without yet thinking that relays might have rules.

I'd like to suggest that in the 'how to' section of the readme, to perhaps add as a first line "Visit the relay first and see if they have rules or restrictions - you are increasing the load on each relay you add in", and possibly shuffle any relays that do have rules (but are not whitelisting systems, still open to new connections without any barriers) to a new section along the lines of "Open but with restrictuions or rules -> Check the relay first!" sort of thing?

I have recently re-opened en.relay.friendi.ca again, but I've had a couple of quick convos with admins that reached out while it was locked that showed they hadn't ever even visited the relay site to see what might be going on.

Thanks, and keep up the good work, everyone who is hunting for this stuff appreciates it!

ap-relay-ger.650thz.de is not activa anymore

The releay ap-relay-ger.650thz.de has been removed by me (owner) and is not operative, anymore.

mastodon-relay.thedoodleproject.net gives http errror 502

While trying to link https://mastodon-relay.thedoodleproject.net/inbox i'm getting http 502. Same happens in the browser for calling either the inbox or simply opening the domain itself (👉 https://mastodon-relay.thedoodleproject.net)

German Mastodon Relay

Hey,

I am the admin of swapping.social, a German Mastodon instance. For this I have also created a relay for German instances. Could this be added to your list?

To ensure that only selected instances can connect, a join request is necessary. This can be done at [email protected].

The relay can be found at https://streamb0x.de

Kind regards
Ben

Move federation.stream to "relays that maybe? work"

Can't resolve DNS record. Might work again one day but doubtful since their last known contact (@[email protected]) is gone from that instance.
Sorry if this should have been a fork & PR.

Hey! You can add this relay to the list, please?

https://relay.chocoflan.net/

It's for instances speaking mostly in spanish language

Thanks in advance!

Investigating https://neighbours.aus.social/

Hey, Any reason https://neighbours.aus.social/ is listed as not working?

I'll fix it up if I can see the problem.
