@Mastodon I believe that there are SO many other things development should focus on before quoted posts:
- better following/liking/boosting interface for remote instances (copy and pasting url's is by no means friendly)
- moving posts between instances when transfering accounts
- ability to change domains (tough one)
Post quoting does help to dogpiling, though I believe that dogpillers will be dogpillers.
And putting mastodon.social as default sends a wrong, oh so wrong, message.
