Was looking at `api_versions` in Mastodon's `/api/v2/instance` endpoint as this would be sort of like "feature detection" for anything new, instead of the hacky UA version string detection 😩.

They are documented under specific features, e.g.: docs.joinmastodon.org/entities but I was curious to see what's introduced for every version bump on a single page.

So I made one (in Notion, as screenshot here, for now), not sure if this would be useful for other devs 🤔

Screenshot of Mastodon's API documentation section describing the `filter_action` attribute, including its type and usage. An arrow points to a version history note mentioning a change in API version 5.API versions changelog with updates from versions v1 to v5, including feature additions and changes like media deletion methods and grouped notifications API.
