@PadraigOCinneide Fascinating! Is there an advantage to this instead of using Swift directly?
EDIT: Just saw the other posts. So never mind 😅

@f4grx @grant_h @rikviergever It does say „Selecting a server…“, so for laypeople that’s enough info. Nerds can look at the network logs.

@grant_h @f4grx @rikviergever It’s less scary when you see the content (or rather missing content) of all those calls to „empty.php“ 😄

@f4grx @rikviergever For me, it doesn’t load a single third party script. The only script loaded is the primary speedtest.js which is obviously required.
All third party network calls just query the different servers to get the ping. The responses don’t actually contain anything.

@grumpysmiffy@aus.social @rikviergever@mastodon.social You could try Linode’s speedtest. It’s not open source, but has no tracking scripts or stuff like that. It’s more of an advertisement for their servers.
They have two speed test locations in Australia.
