Is the state of Mastodon (and most of the fediverse?) such that user/message signing keys are still all RSA?  I've seen there's been some discussion of Ed25519 support, but it seems like not much progress?

@swetland FEP-8b32 implementations use Ed25519:

But for HTTP signatures everyone still uses RSA because dominant implementations don't support Ed25519
