   @HerraBRE #Mastodon works with !GNUsocial as it is pretty well. There were some issues that @gargron raised with me, some of which I believe I fixed and some that I couldn't really figure out (some profile avatar update thing for example?)
   
   Regarding RFC7033 (#WebFinger) it - since standardisation - only _requires_ a JRD (application/jrd+json). application/xrd+xml is just a bonus from !GNUsocial (voluntary according to spec).
   
   The host-meta XRD is XML that because it was standardised before people who reinvent everything (JSON fanpeeps) started developing standards: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6415
   
   But since JRD and XRD are easily translatable between each other it doesn't really matter. And while #Mastodon doesn't use it, the /.well-known/host-meta endpoint is good for discovery unrelated to profiles, such as #OAuth endpoints etc. (so clients can auto-configure them).

     @HerraBRE though I see now that you complained about #Mastodon not respecting the Accept: header... Yeah, that's obviously a bad bug and should be reported as such.
     
     Unfortunately I can't create or discuss Mastodon issues as I'm not a customer with #GitHub...
