We now better support 3rd party apps like Tusky and Phanpy thanks to API and OAuth improvements.

Does this mean us visually impaired people can use clients like Tweesecake and Mona, which have full accessibility for screen readers?

Celebrating FOSS APIs while cross-advertising a sister project under your control that refuses to open their stuff surely is a choice.

I've been working on improving Pixelfed support in my client recently, what exactly has changed?

@mkljczk We fixed OAuth out-of-band (OOB) support, and CORS issues with some endpoints that prevented 3rd party web clients from accessing Pixelfed properly.

Great! One thing I had to work around is that according to Mastodon documentation, scope is a required attribute of Token response (/oauth/token). I don't really need it, but I validate all responses with Valibot.

But that would require too much code duplication rather than just using Laravel Passport defaults, right?

Token

Represents an OAuth token used for authenticating with the API and performing actions.
