    So, as far as I can tell, Mastodon supports:

    • Authorization code flow
    • PKCE
    • Authorization server metadata

    It doesn't seem to support:

    • OAuth Dynamic Client Registration
    • Client ID Metadata Documents

    It instead uses a proprietary endpoint.

    thisismissem is that about right? Is there work underway to support CIMD (preferred) or dynamic registration (less good but a more established standard)?

      I believe CIMD is planned, and at some point expiring access tokens & refresh tokens will also land, and maybe in a distant future DPoP too.

      DCR has a client registration proliferation problem, which is why Mastodon want CIMD.
