Whoever runs a Disbigle server now has an overview of it in one page: the people, the numbers, the traffic with the rest of the fediverse and how the machine is doing. It is in the moderation area, and only administrators see it.
The overview
- Numbers: people signed up and active today, this week and this month, posts written here and arrived from elsewhere, groups, known servers.
- Thirty days at a glance: new sign-ups, posts and activities received, day by day.
- Federation: what other servers sent us, what we refused, the deliveries that failed and which servers are the busiest. Useful to spot a server that stopped answering, or one that is sending too much.
- The server: memory, disk, load, database size and the queues of activities waiting to go out, with a plain-words warning when something is filling up.
The people signed up
Right under the numbers, the overview shows the latest sign-ups with their email and details. Click the number of people signed up, or "See everyone", and a page opens with all of them: email address, when they joined, when they were last active, how much they write, followers and follows, whether they use two-factor login and the last address they signed in from.
The list can be searched by name, username or email, and downloaded as a CSV file for a spreadsheet.
Nothing more than needed
These are data the server already had to keep to work. The only new thing is a daily count of federation traffic per server: numbers, not people, deleted after 35 days. Moderators keep their own tools but do not see this page: email addresses stay with the administrators.
Thinking of running your own server? Here is how.
