The Mastodon instances that I’m a member of have all preemptively defederated and I am very supportive. Just occurred to me we could still see the threads folks over here. What do you guys think? How does this instance feel about Meta?

    Quote toots are the obvious one (although full disclosure: I don’t like them either). Some instances and alternative Fediverse servers have a maximum character count substantially greater than that of Mastodon’s default.

        Twitter has this thing where you can retweet something and add your own context to it. Eugen has resisted adding this to Mastodon for a long time, although I understand that it’s in the works now, citing the tendency for the feature to be used as a way of getting one’s followers to pile on somebody else’s post. On the other hand, some communities have cited this as a very important way of how they’ve used the birdsite, although I don’t understand how exactly and don’t wish to mischaracterise their arguments.
