@edbott @adaitsman @dak3 This is a debate that's been hotly debated on the dev level. There have been many proposals to implement this feature but Eugen has apparently argued that he didn't want to include it because it would spread toxicity & cyberbullying. This debate is still ongoing, maybe as more people demand it, it might come?So far none of the forks have included this feature either.Sadly for me, my instance runs on Akkoma (fork of Pleroma) which does support quote posting but since Mastodon doesn't support it, it won't render my post. Since most of my follows & followers use Mastodon, it effectively renders the feature useless since I can't use it...

@aendra and if the journalists want to dig in even deeper, they would also see the #fediverse to be much bigger than just #Mastodon. We've got other microblogging software like #GoToSocial, #Pleroma, #MissKey & their respective forks. There's also other types of social media on the fediverse like #PeerTube, #WriteFreely, #Plume, #PixelFed, #Friendica and more!Mastodon just so happens to be the biggest/most popular #ActivityPub implementation but they're far from the only one.
