Feel free to use cross-posting in a way that helps Mastodon grow, i.e. copying posts from Mastodon to Twitter, but please avoid doing it the other way around, see our rules on that matter:

"I've made a deliberate choice against a quoting feature because it inevitably adds toxicity to people's behaviours. You are tempted to quote when you should be replying, and so you speak at your audience instead of with the person you are talking to. It becomes performative. Even when doing it for "good" like ridiculing awful comments, you are giving awful comments more eyeballs that way. No quote toots. Thank's"

No i differ..Quoting within a Platform is in fact very useful..
Many times one likes to Boost a Post along with comments that
further enriches the post before reaching a wider audience..your
followers & their followers..It becomes more informative &
interactive..The editor of the Original Post naturally welcomes enrichment & wider reach..Of course then he should also be
ready for positive criticism from a booster..
This is what Social Media is all about..Thanks
