If you run akkoma, you may be inclined to collect metrics to ensure your instance is running smoothly,
and that there's nothing quietly failing in the background.
To facilitate this, akkoma exposes prometheus metrics to be scraped.

## Dashboard
Administrators can access a live dashboard under `/phoenix/live_dashboard`
giving an overview of uptime, software versions, database stats and more.
The dashboard also includes a variation of the prometheus metrics, however
they do not exactly match due to respective limitations of the dashboard
and the prometheus exporter.
Even more important, the dashboard collects metrics locally in the browser
only while the page is open and cannot give a view on their past history.
For proper monitoring it is recommended to set up prometheus.

## Timelines
In addition to Mastodons timelines, there is also a “bubble timeline” showing
posts from the local instance and a set of closely related instances as chosen
by the administrator. It is available under `/api/v1/timelines/bubble`.
Adding the parameter `with_muted=true` to the timeline queries will also return activities by muted (not by blocked!) users.
Adding the parameter `exclude_visibilities` to the timeline queries will exclude the statuses with the given visibilities. The parameter accepts an array of visibility types (`public`, `unlisted`, `private`, `direct`), e.g., `exclude_visibilities[]=direct&exclude_visibilities[]=private`.
Adding the parameter `reply_visibility` to the public and home timelines queries will filter replies. Possible values: without parameter (default) shows all replies, `following` - replies directed to you or users you follow, `self` - replies directed to you.
Adding the parameter `reply_visibility` to the public, bubble or home timelines queries will filter replies. Possible values: without parameter (default) shows all replies, `following` - replies directed to you or users you follow, `self` - replies directed to you.
Adding the parameter `instance=lain.com` to the public timeline will show only statuses originating from `lain.com` (or any remote instance).
Home, public, hashtag & list timelines accept these parameters:
All but the direct timeline accept these parameters:
- `only_media`: show only statuses with media attached
- `local`: show only local statuses
- `remote`: show only remote statuses
Home, public, hashtag & list timelines further accept:
- `local`: show only local statuses
## Statuses
- `visibility`: has additional possible values `list` and `local` (for local-only statuses)
