  1. #Tusky F-Droid finally has quoots and unlike the Mastodon browser interface, you can click on the number of times a post has been quoted and see all those quote posts.

    (I'm slowly warming up to quotes.)

  2. "I'm done for the day, Ms Bertier. I'll be back tomorrow. You have to press this button when I ring, OK? Not this one, this is the remote control. The beeper is on the right, the phone in the middle and the remote on the left.
    - I can't even remember my husband.
    - You were never married Ms Bertier.
    - Ah... It's even worse than I thought then..."

    I love this toot so much, I journeyed back in time via this search so I could boost it again:

    in:library quoots

    ( ^^ searches anything you've boosted! )

    My server's upgrading soon, so I'll be able to quoot it myself soon.

  7. From observation it appears that each instance that shows a quote to it's users needs to request permission from the source instance. This can take a while (my instance hasn't received it yet for a quote made nearly 30mins ago). It just shows "This post is pending approval...."

    This poses 2 issues that I can see at the moment

    1. By the time it's approved it's out of sight/mind
    2. If a popular person quotes somebody can it DDoS their instance?

  8. Funnily enough, a week on since Mastodon introduced quote toots and apart from a small flurry of tests at the beginning, I don't think I've seen a single actual instance of one in the wild.

  9. The quote toot feature has reached my instance and I already hate it for the user interface.
    Mostly I want to Boost, so the extra step with the Quote-but-you-can't button is just annoying.
    I would have preferred to have it in the three dots extra menu.

  10. @pfefferle does the ActivityPub plugin have controls for allowing/blocking quote toots yet?

    I'm assuming not yet, as I think it would be in this section

    #WordPress #quoots #activitypub

  11. How do you feel about quote-posts coming to Mastodon?

    Please boost for a better sample size.

  12. @benroyce @Gargron

    How very dare they find a clever way to fix what was my only real objection to the idea of #quoots!

  13. @Gargron

    something that wasn't clear to me and perhaps of interest to others about #quoteposts

    i knew this:

    in your preferences you can change the setting to allow #quoteposting on your toots globally. to anyone/ followers only/ or just yourself

    but i didn't know you could also do it per post

    so you might allow anyone to quote post you, as a general policy

    but then on one particular post of yours you may disallow a #quotepost as you see fit

  14. Twitter: Tweets.

    Mastodon: Toots.

    Bluesky: Skeets.

    Twitter: Wait, what? SKEETS?!

    Bluesky: Skeets.

    Mastodon: Hold my beer.

  15. "This is available to people on mastodon.online and mastodon.social now!"

    Congratulations to the @Mastodon @MastodonEngineering team on the launch, and to the folks on these two servers: stay cool, be nice to folks you quote.
