@danhon @lmorchard I will be publishing an extremely detailed document on my design, which will be based more or less on how Fedibird does it but with important differences

What gets federated out is a "quoteId" that is a URI that resolves to the AP object for a post. Remote servers SHOULD fetch it with a network request because otherwise anyone can claim they are quoting anything.

I'm curious, where does the "you already trust the source" claim come from, @thomasfuchs?
