Fediseer has until now been only able to determine admins of a fediverse instance via the instance API. This worked fine for software like lemmy which display all their admins in the API, but created issues with instances which either obfuscated admin accounts (like mastodon), or which didn't display them
That’s a smart idea actually! Can you open a github issue for it? I’ll add it ASAP.
The only concern is about making sure this is actually a fediverse instance and not a random website.
Happy if I gave an idea.
I just do query DNS records and fetch nodeinfo. Shouldn’t that be enough?
Yes, usually if it has a nodeinfo it’s OK.
