Would you look at that, 1 more seed node(which has been running for quite some time), should PR this into the default config. Plus this is not running in Europe, but instead in sunny California.

Here's the server it's running on. Ain't it beautiful?

Also, is your seed monitor public by chance?

Added to my list. Beautiful.
When I see it up for enough time I will add it.
Thank you!

No, not public (yet?)

[rishi556]

Good to know thanks. Do you happen to keep where(and with what host) the seeds are hosted by chance? Hoping that we got some diversity out of Europe, Germany and Hetzner by chance.

No, not really, and doesn't matter that much because my node is sometimes in one of: PL, FR, UK, CA. There are some work in progress to improve it significantly but more on that - I guess - next year.

Got one more seed that should be up and running from me shortly, hiveseed2.rishipanthee.com. Should be synced up by the morning. Again in the bay area, but different DC with a different network providor(upstream here is 1299/Arelion vs 6939/Hurricane with other seed).

Update: It's synced up.

Further update: hived is smart and adds all A(and hopefully we'll get support for IPv6 in the future) records on a domain to the seed list, see the code here: https://gitlab.syncad.com/hive/hive/-/blob/master/libraries/plugins/p2p/p2p_plugin.cpp#L437-438. I've consolidated the 2 nodes to hiveseed.rishipanthee.com and will continue to add more to it as I spin up more nodes(hoping to get one or two in the Chicago area by mid next year).
