The lack of quote retooting on Mastodon strikes me as odd.

The lack of quote retooting on Mastodon strikes me as odd. I'm sure some instances out there have implemented it, but it is still strange that's not a default feature. At least Tumblr-style where it appends to the end of op.

Most of the other softwares have implemented it, including Misskey and all of its forks. I know that there are a few forks of Mastodon which have it too.There's a whole bunch of drama though where people from Twitter don't seem to fully comprehend that this place isn't Twitter and won't be like Twitter, and so they worry that people will use it to harass other people like they did on Twitter. What I'd really like to see is a system though where you can make a reply to someone, then have both that post and the reply boosted to your timeline as a single sort of post, like how it works on Cohost.

@Raccoon fr cohost had shit figured out. I'm gonna miss it so much, it was so intuitive and straightforward to use. The coexistence of repliy rechosts and a distinct "comments" section promoted healthy engagement so much.

Well, I'm hoping that this influx of people from Tumblr and now co-host will offset the people from Twitter a bit more, and we can get some sort of boost-with-comment system in here...
