OpenPDS#

Directory of AT Protocol PDS servers with open registration.

Pulls data from mary-ext/atproto-scraping, enriches it with server metadata (version, user count, geo-location, contact info), and presents a browsable directory.

How it works#

A daily cron job:

1. Fetches state.json listing ~2900 known PDSes with signup status
2. Syncs open/closed status to a SQLite database
3. Enriches a batch of 20 servers per run (health, describeServer, listRepos, geo-IP)
4. Checks for the latest PDS version from the bluesky-social/pds GitHub repo

The web interface shows open servers with sortable columns, version badges, and trust signals.
