Cool stuff coming in Mastodon 4.3 (stable soonish?) for C2S enjoyers

Particularly interesting: a new standards-based (!) OAuth discovery and dynamic client registration mechanism

github.com/mastodon/mastodon/i

ie no more creating boatloads of unnecessary clients using the non-standard Mastodon API!

👉 standard: ietf.org/id/draft-parecki-oaut

👀 anyone can see it in action today on the main instance, which runs early 4.3 builds:
mastodon.social/.well-known/oa

@andypiper, any new hints on when 4.3 will be released?

iirc I read a while ago it was _supposed_ to be July, but I'm probably out of date on that

@js the beta was intended to be out during July. I'll be putting together the July engineering summary blog post this week. Still hoping we can share a beta very soon. but I do not have a specific date. The team is trying to tune grouped notifications, I believe.
