Anyone knows how servers' location data (city and country) are collected by @fedidb ? Is this automatic from some server metadata? Or manual? @dansup ?

@diegodlh @fedidb @dansup I would imagine its by IP address linked to domain of instance. The same way WHOIS gets location data from websites

Thank you, @liaizon! Sounds reasonable, of course.

It's compatible with instances using Cloudflare CDN, such as rebel.ar and mstdn.party, not showing a location in @fedidb.
