This post did not contain any content.And the majority of Mastodon users will think that Gargron has introduced quote-posts to the Fediverse.
What next to nobody on Mastodon knows is that the Fediverse has had quote-posts for a bit over 15 years, namely since the launch of Mistpark (today known as Friendica) in 2010. That's not only longer than the term "Fediverse" is old, it's also longer than Mastodon has been around.
For as long as Mastodon has existed, it has been possible to quote-post just about anyone and anything on Mastodon.
Oh, and for as long as Mastodon will exist, the non-Fediverse will be able to quote-post any and all public Mastodon toots with zero resistance, opt-in or opt-out or not.
