<p>I&#x27;m trying to decide how much of &quot;quote posts&quot; I want to support in <a href="https://github.com/toddsundsted/ktistec" rel="nofollow">Ktistec</a>. On one hand, it&#x27;s not trivial functionality, and I really do question how much extra value someone&#x27;s comments on someone else&#x27;s post will add to the Fediverse. On the other hand, I dunno... assuming Mastodon limits abuse by enforcing quoting rules, Ktistec could probably just follow along and display quoted posts. Is there any value in just that?</p><p><a href="/tags/ktistec/" rel="tag">#ktistec</a> <a href="/tags/activitypub/" rel="tag">#activitypub</a> <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#fediverse</a></p>

<p>🆕 blog! “Getting started with Mastodon&#x27;s Quote Posts - technical implementation details for servers”</p><p>Quoting posts on Mastodon is slightly complex.

<p>The Fediverse is deliberately spread out on thousands of independent servers running many types of software, which connect together to form a single social network.</p><p>But why is it like this? Why go to all this trouble?
