Sounds good to me! But I'd probably place it in settings instead to avoid wasting a menu item for something most users will only view once (at best)
I think Megalodon does it too, along with other links or info

It isn't really a setting per se, though. I don't feel like that would be a very logical or intuitive place tbh. Perhaps in the "About" menu, there could be a "My host" with the host's URL beneath it in small text?
The reason I said in the main menu is because it makes it easy to find, could be self-contained, and since opening your profile (on the server) can be done there, It seemed like a logical place to have an "About server" or "Rules" button there.
Additionally, I think it would be cool if, upon linking an account, this "about server" page appeared so that the user could review the server rules before using it, in the event that they just signed up for an account and immediately went to use Tuba, it would ensure they know the rules, and would only take one click to dismiss it.

I agree that placing it in settings doesn't make much sense on its own, but along with other links it kind-of does? It could be a small section wtih "About <instance name>", "Security Settings" and other settings we don't plan to handle... On a second thought however, this would be extremely messy on non-mastodon backends as they have different endpoitns 🤷
The about window is provided as is. We could maybe do a workaround and provide a custom tuba:// link we handle to open it but instance info is unrelated to "About Tuba" so probably shouldn't.
I guess the main menu is the only option

Not opposed to it but when creating an account Mastodon makes sure you read and agreed to the rules. In the future we might just add a way to register though (to be honest, I dont want Tuba to be responsible for e-mails and passwords but some backends like gotosocial don't have a UI for registering)
