@crecente@vbuendiar@LukasBrausch Also, it's so bizarre that you think the super toxic people and their hoards of followers are stopped by not being able to quote post.
Well, at the same time you think a lot of people get stopped to use Mastodon at all because of missing quotes...
But on a more productive note I want to mention that some fediverse services allow for quotes. Firefish does, I think. But as I myself do not miss them a lot I am ok with Mastodon.
In the end, I would hope for some more recognition for the fact that there may be good and legitimate arguments for and against a quote function.
I really want mastodon to succeed but my own engagement here would be much, much higher with a version of quote-posting and with the ability to find posts on topics of interest
@wrigleyfield from my little time on blue sky I don't see people using the features differently, like QT, etc., the only advantage seems to be that there are more sociologists there. I really don't know why.
@philipncohen@wrigleyfield Bad experience with scholar.social and other instances' "put your 'I voted' sticker/story of other people being racist to you behind a CW" moderation.
