Quoting Rainer Rehak (FIfF) (2022-11-25 02:19:15)
thank you for your great work. We are a tech NGO from Germany and startet a little campaign here to encourage users to run a snowflake to help circumvent cencorship (e.g. Iran, Russia): https://snowflake.fiff.de/index_en.html
Now we get a lot of questions about how many ppl actually do run snowflakes, but on https://metrics.torproject.org we couldn't find any data on snowflake.
Could this data be make available or are there reasons for hiding it?
The metrics are public, see the snowflake stadistics in collector: https://metrics.torproject.org/collector.html#snowflake-stats
The last one I see is: snowflake-ips DE=9498,US=5900,NL=1397,RU=1159,FR=1066,GB=1012,BE=776,CH=669,JP=645,AT=618,CA=593,IT=511,IN=480,BR=454,PL=359,SE=331,AU=327,ES=293,RO=254,IR=2 22,CZ=209,DK=209,FI=205,MX=161,EU=154,GR=153,PT=149,NO=144,CN=128,DZ=126,MY=119,HK=117,SG=111,PH=107,TH=105,AR=104,CL=98,UA=97,ZA=97,ID=89,TR=85,TW=70,IE=69, HU=68,NZ=67,SK=67,BD=66,IL=62,??=58,KR=51,NG=42,BG=39,BY=36,LU=34,LT=32,SI=30,CO=29,YE=29,LV=28,EE=25,EG=25,RS=22,HR=21,LK=21,AE=20,MA=20,VN=20,KE=18,GH=16,I S=14,KZ=13,MD=13,PK=13,EC=12,PR=12,UY=12,CM=11,CR=11,ET=11,GE=11,NP=11,UZ=11,CY=10,NA=10,PE=10,QA=8,SA=8,SV=8,TN=8,AL=7,BJ=6,PA=6,SD=6,VE=6,BO=5,IQ=5,KG=5,MM =5,CI=4,JM=4,JO=4,KH=4,MT=4,SO=4,SY=4,BA=3,BS=3,CU=3,CW=3,LY=3,ME=3,MG=3,MK=3,MO=3,MU=3,OM=3,PS=3,PY=3,AM=2,HN=2,JE=2,LB=2,LI=2,MV=2,RE=2,ZW=2,AG=1,BB=1,BH=1 ,BW=1,GF=1,GG=1,GP=1,GU=1,HT=1,NE=1,SN=1,TC=1,TM=1,TT=1,TZ=1,UG=1,ZM=1 snowflake-ips-badge 178 snowflake-ips-iptproxy 4343 snowflake-ips-standalone 2875 snowflake-ips-webext 23388 snowflake-ips-total 30784
So there are 30k snowflakes, 23k are webextensions and just in germany ~9.5k.
We haven't got the time yet to plot those data properly in metrics.torproject.org, I just created a ticket for it: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/pluggable-transports/snowf...
Another way to access similar data is in the prometheus[0] exporter of the snowflake broker: https://snowflake-broker.torproject.net/prometheus
