* [WebFinger] has been standardized by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETC). [NodeInfo] is defined informally.
* [WebFinger] is already used to resolve identifiers. [NodeInfo] is primarily used for gathering and aggregating server metadata.
* [FEP-2677] adds a new non-standard `rel` relation to the [NodeInfo] index document. This may have surprising effects on some consuming implementations. This proposal is using [WebFinger] in standard ways.
* `Service` ([Primer][ActivityPubService]) is the type suggested by the W3C ActivityStreams Primers for this kind of resource rather than `Application` ([Primer][ActivityPubApp]).
* Given an [ActivityVocabulary] actor type is being used for the WebFinger `rel` value, a `Service` ([Primer][ActivityPubService]) is the type suggested by the W3C ActivityStreams Primers for this kind of resource rather than `Application` ([Primer][ActivityPubApp]). (Note this is distinct from the type specified in the instance-level actor resource that's linked from WebFinger.)
* [FEP-2677] only defines a singleton instance-level actor. This proposal allows that use case but has more flexibility for advanced implementations.
[FEP-2c59] discusses how to discover [WebFinger] resource URIs from an [ActivityPub] actor resource. This is not related to instance-level actor discovery.
[FEP-4adb] discusses dereferencing identifiers with WebFinger. It's similar to this proposal but not specifically related to discovering instance-level actors.
