Some really great updates in Mastodon's latest Trunk & Tidbits blog post, including, from the W3C Social Web working group notes, a note on LOLA, a "proposal for live online account portability between two ActivityPub servers".

Finally had a chance to read the latest Trunk & Tidbits Mastodon development blog post, and while seeing all the work that's been done on quote posts and starter packs getting a mention is exciting, this upcoming update is really nice:

"Added the ability to block specific usernames from registering. This handles homoglyphs, partial matches, and either require approval, or deny registration entirely."
