page for "choose best server"

[tgxn]

allow people to quickly navigate to an appropriate server they could join

use methods to determine if it's "good"

• ranking in federation (not appearing on any known blocked instances)
• ranking by active users (not top 3 by users?)
• randomize suggested server for each visitor

[tgxn]

added instance scores to support this

[tgxn]

moved scoring to discussion #23

[tgxn]

added page at /join but not linked anywhere... need to improve the server list design

[Generator]

Also best server based on visitor location (country, state ...).

Location by IP or device location (in case of using a VPN)

[tgxn]

#99 for server location.

This ticket is stalled, I made the page to show this data, but I think it needs some improvement before we have new users looking at it... Happy for feedback
