  @kirby @ruina @iamtakingiteasy @lina http://demo.fedilist.com/ ?
  Though I guess you'd still have to snap the usercount so you can note variance.

  @lina @ruina @iamtakingiteasy well here's how i visioned the bot, because you seem to be thinking i want to make a full on statistics bot:
  
  a program that runs as a daemon getting the user count from several instances on that api endpoint, and posts it in this format
  
  pigpoopballs.com: [number] users (+/- [number] difference from last query)
  x.com: [same format as above]
  
  just as a meme, maybe ping someone if the number for a certain instance increases.

  @Zerglingman @ruina @iamtakingiteasy @lina no, the point is the bot constantly posts if there's a difference in at least one of the instances user counts, it's not meant to be a serious stats tool, just a meme

  @kirby @ruina @lina @iamtakingiteasy Sure, but you can have it read from there.

  @lina @ruina @iamtakingiteasy that's why we don't post if there is no difference

  @kirby @ruina @iamtakingiteasy i am thinking that you're trying to implement as a bot something that only a few people would bother to look up in the first place, i feel like getting a difference from last query would change very rarely

  @Zerglingman @ruina @iamtakingiteasy @lina why would i have it read from fedilist when the mastodon api provides json responses that are very easy to use?

  @kirby @ruina @lina @iamtakingiteasy Because csv is even easier to parse than json, also you don't need to go out and connect to the instances you want, you just rip it all in one call.

  @Zerglingman @ruina @iamtakingiteasy @lina is there a way to do multiple instances at once?

  @Zerglingman @ruina @iamtakingiteasy @lina @p "All instances" could be very useful, i could even exclude stuff like mastodon if i wanted to

  @kirby @Zerglingman @iamtakingiteasy @lina @ruina Mainly that you can get historical data and you can get it without hitting the origin server, so it works even if the origin server is down or otherwise inaccessible to you, and it abstracts away some of the differences that Misskey/Friendica/whatever have. The idea is mostly to give people useful data about fedi.

  @Zerglingman @kirby @iamtakingiteasy @lina @ruina It is a long conversation, what is the specific question?

  @p @ruina @lina @kirby @iamtakingiteasy Can you pull data for multiple named instances in a single call?

  @kirby @Zerglingman @iamtakingiteasy @lina @ruina Oh, yeah, I mean it is a slow endpoint but it is cached, and it is much faster to fetch that than to fetch the data from every instance.

  @Zerglingman @iamtakingiteasy @kirby @lina @ruina Not yet, but that's trivial to add if someone would use it.
