We’re just reinventing it from the grassroots once again. Clients like Ice Cubes and Ivory show previews of Mastodon posts when you include the URL in your quote post. It’s already happening and Mastodon’s official web interface will have to catch up. They lost their chance to define the quote-post on Mastodon by refusing to do it all for highly dubious “safety” reasons. https://mastodon.social/@film_girl/109759044241043089

@gruber @ivory I find mastodon previews to be sooo hit and miss. Is it instance dependant. For example this is how your post looked to me in Ivory

@bed @gruber Mona has gotten this right from day one. I honestly forget there technically isn’t quote posting on Mastodon because of that.

@_Jordan @bed @gruber Fortunately, @paul just did a poll in regards to this. So fingers crossed Ivory will get native support sometime soonish. ;)
