Comparing nodeinfo in GS, Mastodon and Pleroma gives this:

https://gnusocial.net/api/nodeinfo/2.0.json

https://mastodon.social/nodeinfo/2.0.json

https://pleroma.libretux.com/nodeinfo/2.0.json

In GS there is an extra "api". Don't know if this is needed by design... Maybe implementing it in the same way as Mastodon and Pleroma would help to establish a standard way?

It isn't needed by design, but it was in fact a design choice :) The standard way is to check /.well-known/nodeinfo as in https://gnusocial.net/.well-known/nodeinfo.

Also, we aren't the only deciding to put nodeinfo under /api/, Pixelfed did the same, as seen in: https://pixelfed.social/api/nodeinfo/2.0.json.
