I am writing a Astro app. Astro relies on plugins to provide user authentication. I would like to authenticate using Fediverse oauth.

I tentatively pick auth.js for my user authentication library (but replies suggesting I use something else are welcome. Is BetterAuth better?!).

Auth.js has a series of auth "providers". One of them is Mastodon.

I'm confused. Does this support any Mastodon instance or only m.s? It says you define the "issuer" yourself. As… an env var??!

Auth.js | Mastodon

If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://mastodon.social/users/mcc/statuses/115035093172996420 on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)
