While working on Fedimojis, I'd like to check that the link entered by the user is actually a Mastodon server, to avoid bugs or loading thousands of emojis from Pixelfed instances that don't distinguish between local and external emojis.

How can I do this?

@retiolus@lemmy.cat pretty much all software should be implementing nodeinfo: https://github.com/jhass/nodeinfo
usually reachable via HTTP on an endpoint like url/nodeinfo/2.0.json
