@oliphant @erincandescent @thisismissem NodeInfo afaik *requires* exposing stats, it was developed for that purpose. see http://nodeinfo.diaspora.software/ and especially https://github.com/jhass/nodeinfo/blob/main/schemas/2.2/schema.jsonin any case, nodeinfo isn't required for federation and probably isn't an ideal "liveness check". but then again, there isn't really a better way that I can think of -- checking the root domain for a 2xx response might introduce false positives.
