Today was a quite productive day. FediSea now stores server location (country and city) and provider name of every instance.
We are also storing the supported protocols and the metadata JSON in Nodeinfo.
We just restarted the crawler to revisit every instance again and store the newly added information.

I love all the creative Mastodon instance thumbnails😍
The source code of all three repositorys is public now:
Crawler: https://github.com/ghostbyte-dev/fedisea-crawler
API: https://github.com/ghostbyte-dev/fedisea-api
We deployed the current version of FediSea. It is now available on https://fedisea.surf/
This is a very early version and is nothing more than the current development state.
So here is a brief overview of our new project FediSea.
We are developing a Fediverse crawler which discovers and collects data about Fediverse instances. Then there will be an open API which provides this data.
The website will show statistics and information about the fediverse and there will be a clear API documentation.
All three Github repos (crawler, API and frontend) will be made public within the next few days.

We are going to share most information on our new project FediSea on the @ghostbyte account, so be sure to follow us there. Alternatively the hashtag #FediSea will work too.
