I've rarely seen QT used well. Only as a means to spread fascist propaganda behind blocks.
Also by hategrifters to game the algorithm by getting "allies" to "dunk" on them.
An analysis shows they're often negative. https://wandering.shop/@Quinnae_Moon/109566758700954368
However Mastodon has a WS problem. Black people use QT socially and to "keep receipts".
This suggests it's not a tech problem. It's a social problem.
Also QT exists on this platform, see: #QTTusky

QT exists. My objection is that it's used to spread screenshot of fascist propaganda, bypassing blocks. Propaganda works. #QTTusky

@KimCrayton1 ... As an educator, I used QTing to educate AND yet many folx, by default, see my content as “harassing” particularly when I’m calling out white supremacy, anti-Blackness, and it’s resulting harm
Prioritizing the most vulnerable means LISTENING and ACTING in ways that reflect life’s complexities
If #Journalists spent half the time learning about the platform that they did complaining about it, it'd be pretty sweet. Look at the state of this post. Too arrogant to learn #MastodonCuration. #QTTusky

@taylorlorenz Journalists will never stick around this app long term... We...build on each others ideas, and add crucial context to posts. These are things replies simply do not accomplish...quote posting...does not = harassment!
