WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
Of course, there is the website https://caniuse.com/ that allows you to search for a feature to see if it is supported in browsers. This does not tell you what has just arrived, or what has changed in the aggregate.
Mozilla has a webpage called Specification Position where they state their position on web and web-related specifications submitted to standards bodies like the IETF, W3C, and Ecma TC39. Their position can be: positive, neutral, negative, defer, or under investigation. This does not say when or if a feature will be implemented soon.
Google's web.dev blog: Offers technical guides and news. The RSS feed is found at https://web.dev/feed.xml.
Webkit has a github repo with issues on it standard positions. Again, it does not appear to get much attention.
At the same time, we can't divorce ourselves from the current reality. We need to remember that the web is being built by separate for-profit businesses (although Mozilla's parent foundation is a not-for-profit), and web browsers are not a profitable endeavour. It is a strange reality.
I would say that overall InterOp 2022 went well, they completed most of what they planned to do. Of the 15 focus areas, 13 focus areas had an InterOp score of over 80%.
The metrics are based on the passing rate for the web-platform-tests (WPT) project, the automated test suite for web standards. The completion rate is categorised as either stable, or experimental. There is no definition of what experimental entails, presumably features that are behind experimental flags are included. Stable is better to go off in any case.
