Mastodon is officially rolling out quote posts. Starting next week, you’ll see an option to quote another user by selecting the repost — or “boost” — button, allowing you to add your thoughts to someone else’s post.
The decentralized platform initially planned not to launch quote posts over concerns that they could be used for harassment or to take someone out of context. Mastodon reversed this decision in February, saying a lack of quote posts might discourage people from joining the fediverse.
rolling out to Mastodon*
You have to standardize it to roll that to the fediverse.
I thought Misskey and its forks already supported quote posts?
They already have quotes.
Akkoma, Misskey and alike have had quote posts for ages now
Mastodon is a subset of the fediverse.
If something is in Mastodon, it’s in the fediverse.Sharkey already has quote posts.
(Almost) all services (except Mastodon) have had quote posts for years/decades.
(Sharkey, Misskey, Friendica, Hubzilla, Pleroma, Akkoma, etc.)
