Mastodon is great, the only thing I miss on this app is quote posts. I know they have a bad rap bc of Twitter, but every major social network has this functionality for a reason (Tumblr, LinkedIn, Facebook, IG). As a journalist, I’d love to add commentary and amplify great info, build on ppl’s points, etc. You just can’t do that the same wait with replies! Is there any chance we might get them on here?
@taylorlorenz Yes, it will happen.

@jcutting @jab01701mid that’s not really fair. What’s your point, they’re lazy? Incompetent? This is a tiny team, implementing a protocol/applications that to a very real degree rivals Twitter, which had a magnitude more developers.
@strasseba @jcutting I agree - I really saw this comment in another context, as the Meta/IG ActivityPub team.
You can obviously implement "Quote Tweeting" on your own Mastodon instance if you want to. I really don't need it.
