What is useful and/or interesting to know about Mojeek?

I guess what comes to mind is a more in depth behind the scenes of the search engines. Mostly what Mojeek is working and what are the plans for the future of Mojeek to become a true independent search engines. Plus maybe how hard it is to index the web and developing an ad network along side continuing to improve the features and structure of the search engines.

We recently put out a little chart of some response times (below) which some people seemed to find interesting; what else, if anything, do you not know about the innards/processes etc. yet that you’d like to know?

Is there a public-facing status dashboard like AWS or OVH? Sometimes I cannot connect to Mojeek. And I’m not sure if you are doing something.

Conversely, if you wanted to check if users are having a problem, you might use RIPE Atlas.

We don’t have a public-facing status dashboard, but we’d definitely like to look into this. If you’re able to give when this has happened, a time and a date would be massively helpful, then we can see what’s going on from our side.

I will make a note the next time it happens.
