      While setting up the ListenBrainz development environment, I noticed that the OAuth setup documentation does not match the current MusicBrainz application registration UI.

      The documentation mentions registering an application with fields such as:

      • Name
      • Type
      • Callback URL

      However, the current MusicBrainz application registration flow requires:

      • Application name
      • Description
      • Homepage
      • Redirect URI(s)

      Because of this mismatch, it is unclear how the documented fields map to the current UI, which makes OAuth setup confusing for new contributors.

      It would be helpful to clarify the correct field mappings in the documentation or update the setup instructions to reflect the current MusicBrainz OAuth application registration process.
