You know what's nice? #Mastodon sends me an alert when someone edits a post I boosted or faved.

Now if only we could get #QuoteReplies! :)

@PamCrossland
If we don't credit the author it's (sort of) #plagerism.

We came from Falsebook and we adjusted quickly to the culture of Fediverse not using #quoteReplies.

We quickly appreciated that although we may've been able to grow on Falsebook from it that it does also breed #oneUpmanship and #toxicity.

We doubt #MastodonDevs care what we say. They are still not enforcing #AGPLv3 against #HellaDoge, despite our calls.

@patak @thilo @elk I’ve nothing against boosting replies in general where appropriate. But boosting replies and the replies to which they reply to seems OTT, or at least sufficiently rare that it shouldn’t be baked into the UI.

Yes, perhaps placing #QuoteReplies under other options and/or via an alt or shift-click could work. Personally I don’t think it’s a bad thing that people are prompted to choose which they want each time (as Mastodon currently does with the visibility of boosts), but given the sensitivity around quoting perhaps this would be prudent.

So many people are talking about bringing #quotereplies #quotetweets to #Mastodon, but I’ve yet to see any #Fediverse platforms import #Tumblr’s reblog trees. Which is weird, given that Tumblr is going FOSS and Fediverse soon. #reblogs#reblog #activitypub

The only #misskey app for #iOS is completely in #Japanese. I wouldn’t send those who support quote-tweets to that platform just yet. #quotetweets #quoteboosts #quotereplies

I will stop wishing for #QuoteReplies on Mastodon if we could get (the much more complicated and expensive, I'm sure) full text search instead.

@feditips

I'm just that man who thinks that #introductions are cheesy and serve to shred any modesty left to the person with bunch of #SelfPromotion #hashtags. But hey, maybe it will change, and I'll do a proper #introduction of mine some day.

Good mention about #languages filtering at #Mastodon. I saw some people posting with wrong #language - and they wondered where is all support.

Equally nice catch on the lack of #QuoteReplies and #QuoteBoost. It can and will be abused. Separate links make up for user's switch of context.

However, I don't have a feeling that half of other advices will help gain followers. It's just a happy coincidence that people discover my posts, but I don't think it would be quite easy without tags or leaving my replies on trending topics. :robotok:

You will see no "Mastodon is missing this feature!" posts from me.

Why? Because I haven't even been here a month, lol.

When entering a new space - visiting a country, moving to a new city, joining a new online community - we always tell people to look around, respect the guidelines, observe the norms, and just get a sense of the place before doing anything.

It's time to actually live up to that advice.

#Mastodon #TwitterMigration #EternalSeptember #QuoteReplies #Cmgr #CommunityManagement

@randomwalker the whole point of a #fediverse is that these decisions don't need to be global. If an instance wants to do #quotereplies or #algorithmic feeds, someone can 1. submit the code and 2. decide to enable it on their instance.

if such features are submitted as required features instead of optional, you are more likely to fork #Mastodon than to get these changes into the core, so tread carefully

however, don't make the mistake of labeling it a problem to "fix". This isn't :birdsite:
