@Sheril I do think the way things work here, that gamification just won't be as effective. It is very difficult to go viral in the same way when there is no algorithm prioritizing high-engagement posts.

There are valid reasons to quote-boost and I often find myself limited by the lack of the option. I would love to be able to continue a conversation by referencing someone else's post. Currently the best I can do is cast it into the ether and I never hear anything back.
