How the ranking works
Measured automatically
Every listing is checked every few hours: is it reachable, how many people are online. Dead listings drop out.
Tested by an editor
An editor joins, spends real sessions inside and writes a review in the community’s own language.
Ranked in the open
The score is a weighted sum of published criteria. Sponsorship is labelled and never changes the order.
