Is there a good way for my web crawler to detect whether a domain is a fediverse instance?
@amin oof… good question… maybe @Mojeek knows, and if not, they might be interested in the same.
@mirabilos @amin @Mojeek Shouldn't Fedi instances have something particular in .well-known for webfinger to work? 🤔

They do to some extent, but I think I found a better answer, nodeinfo: https://github.com/jhass/nodeinfo
Usually it's at /nodeinfo/{version}, you can find the exact version and path a site is useing at .well-known/nodeinfo.
