#Suomi on 5. isoin fediversumipalveluntarjoaja 75 IP:llä. Vain yksi IP:istä on #Helsinki n ulkopuolella (hyvä #Porvoo!).

Olis kiva nähdä lisää hajautettuja palvelimia, esim. #Espoo #Tampere #Vantaa #Oulu #Turku #Jyväskylä #Kuopio #Lahti #Pori #Joensuu #Kouvola #Lappeenranta #Vaasa #Hämeenlinna #Seinäjoki.

Asutko muualla kuin Helsingissä ja haluatko auttaa? Osta käytetty #RaspberryPi -tietokone (~20-50 €), asenna kotipalvelin ja osta sille domain-osoite (~5-20 €/vuosi).

discuss.systemsRob Ricci (@ricci@discuss.systems)With bluesky (mostly) going down for a few hours today, I got to wondering about how decentralized the fediverse really is in terms of where its servers are hosted. I grabbed a server list from fedidb, with network information coming from ipinfo.io . These stats are by the number of *servers* not the number of *users* (maybe I'll run those stats later). fedidb currently tracks 2,650 servers of various types (Mastodon, pixelfed, lemmy, misskey, peertube, etc) The fediverse is most vulnerable to disruptions at CloudFlare: 24% of Fediverse servers are behind it. Also note that this means that I don't have real data on where this 24% are located or hosted, since CloudFlare obscures this by design. Beyond CloudFlare, the fediverse is not too concentrated on any one network. The most popular host, Hertzner, only hosts 14% of fediverse servers, and it falls off fast from there. Here are the top networks where fediverse servers are hosted: 504 Cloudflare, Inc. 356 Hetzner Online GmbH 130 DigitalOcean, LLC 114 OVH SAS 56 netcup GmbH 55 Amazon.com, Inc. 55 Akamai Connected Cloud 36 Contabo GmbH 33 SAKURA Internet Inc. 32 The Constant Company, LLC 31 Xserver Inc. 28 SCALEWAY S.A.S. 24 Google LLC 23 Oracle Corporation 16 GMO Internet Group, Inc. 14 IONOS SE 14 FranTech Solutions 11 Hostinger International Limited 10 Nubes, LLC Half of fediverse servers are on networks that host 50 or fewer servers - that's pretty good for resiliency. There is even more diversity when it comes to BGP prefixes, which is good for resiliency: for example, the cloud providers that have multiple availability zones will generally have them on different prefixes, so this gets closer to giving us a picture of the specific bits of infrastructure the fediverse relies on. The top BGP prefixes: 55 104.21.48.0/20 50 104.21.16.0/20 48 104.21.64.0/20 41 104.21.32.0/20 41 104.21.0.0/20 38 104.21.80.0/20 32 172.67.128.0/20 31 172.67.144.0/20 28 172.67.208.0/20 28 162.43.0.0/17 27 104.26.0.0/20 26 172.67.192.0/20 26 172.67.176.0/20 23 172.67.160.0/20 19 116.203.0.0/16 17 172.67.64.0/20 17 159.69.0.0/16 16 65.109.0.0/16 14 88.99.0.0/16 14 49.13.0.0/16 13 78.46.0.0/15 13 167.235.0.0/16 13 138.201.0.0/16 11 95.217.0.0/16 11 95.216.0.0/16 11 49.12.0.0/16 11 135.181.0.0/16 10 37.27.0.0/16 10 157.90.0.0/16 75% of fediverse servers are behind BGP prefixes that host 10 or fewer servers, meaning that the fediverse is *very* resilient to large network outages. Top countries where fediverse servers are hosted: 871 United States 439 Germany 156 France 148 Japan 75 Finland 57 Canada 49 Netherlands 38 United Kingdom 26 Switzerland 26 South Korea 21 Spain 19 Sweden 18 Austria 17 Australia 15 Russia 12 Czech Republic 10 Singapore 10 Italy And finally, a map of the locations of fediverse servers: https://ipinfo.io/tools/map/91960023-e8c6-4bee-9b07-721f2c8febab

🪲 Large pine weevil 🇫🇮
I was waiting for the great spotted woodpecker to make his presence known, but suddenly the beetle was right next to me. I quickly changed the lens and missed the woodpecker for this pile shot 😉.
ℹ️ The spruce bark beetle (Hylobius abietis) grows up to 1.4 cm long and is mainly found in coniferous forests.

🪲 Fichtenrüsselkäfer 🇫🇮
Eigentlich hab ich den Buntspecht aufgelauert, der sich bereits durch Laute bemerkbar machte, aber auf einmal war der Käfer neben mir. Schnell das Objektiv gewechselt und den Specht für dieses Stackfoto verpasst 😉.
ℹ️ Der Fichtenrüsselkäfer (Hylobius abietis) wird bis zu 1,4 cm lang und kommt vor allem in Nadelwäldern vor.
