Interesting. How is a selfhosted app able to have many servers ? https://librespeed.org/ is the demo and works well for me.

@girish I would have guesses a server that manages "workers" (similar to GitLab CI runners or Sensu nodes) to run the test in different regions but looking at their repo I'm not too sure...

It might be that if you are selfhosting it, you really only need to have one server local server to test speed. I am also curious how it works as the demo gives different server options

Could be a nice way to collaborate with other Cloudron admins to add other private test points if desired.

@robi cloudron community connectivity plexus

had to bust open a thesaurus for that one. in all seriousness that qould be cool. espwcially because we have representation im so many locations.

@girish the way I read it is that the self-host can test against different remote servers to get a truer indication of connection speed across multiple remote endpoints

--server SERVER                Specify a SERVER ID to test against. Can be supplied
                                  multiple times.

although that's from the cli implementation

@robi Great idea.

This application cries out for federation.
