Okay, I get that they’re gonna add something that allows your posts not to be quoted, but what’s stopping me from just screenshoting a toot from someone that doesn’t wanna be quoted and adding that image to a toot of my own and using it as a quoted toot? Besides the effort of course.
That could make possible the repost on Lemmy and that’s a big deal!
Today to repost, you boost and you can’t add anything else to the original toot like the mention of a lemmy community to allow fediversion of the content. This new feature might make it possible. I can’t wait!

Nothing, but the effort might be one the driving forces of how one uses social media. And thus how it’s communities begin to operate and feel.
