@955_36 @gottalaff.bsky.social This looks like it's some change in the gateway behaviour, maybe? Changing post transfers so they show up as quoots instead of basic web links (which is strictly speaking more correct), but since Bluesky doesn't know anything about quote-permission, it […]

Given that they've been around for a while now, what's the general verdict on quoots?
My timeline has been clean of people who deal in snarky remarks or cheap dunks for a while now, so my experience is heavily skewed. 😅

What about "quoots"?

Ok, yeah, the web UI only shows one layer of nesting. Pity, I want to see an infinitely shrinking chain of quoots down to infinity,.
I wonder if there's a tweak I can make in the code to do that, without heavy lifting...

(Tho the Toot! test version just no-op'd when I hit the quoot button. Hm.)
(also, interesting, the quooted quooted toot isn't showing up for me)

Quoots in a client that doesn’t support them look exactly as bad as bsky boosts do via the bridge. Totally annoying and useless.
Guess I’ll see if I can still get in on my client’s TestFlight.

Now that quote posts are a thing on Mastodon, we need an insufferably cutesy nickname for them that everyone hates but still gets used anyway. To that end I nominate “Quoots”, a portmanteau of ‘quote’ and ‘toot’. I believe it’s the worst possible option, solidly cementing Mastodon in particular and the Fediverse in general as having the worst slang on the internet. Please quoot to spread the word.

* Posts - Toots (you'll never take this from us!)
* Quote toots - Quoots
* Boost toots - Boots, or Boops if you prefer.

Phanpy doesn't support quoots yet, so I'm using Mastodon's stock web interface and.. it's bad. Compare how busy it looks with unnecessary stuff (do I really need a "post" input form on screen at all times? Do I need a link to "favorites" visible at all […]

![Mastodon's official UI home screen. There are three columns taking up the whole screen. Left column has half taken up with an input form for posting a new toot. Then there's some wasted space, and at the bottom a bunch of text links: "social.ridetrans.it: [About] [Profiles directory] [privacy policy]", etc.
The middle column has all the toots from my timeline. There is only a single thin grey line separating the toots, and the text is small and somewhat difficult to read.
The right column has the mastodon logo on top, and then about 10 links like "Home", "Trending", "Live feeds", etc. At the bottom, "TRENDING NOW" with #caterday, #bikenite, and #cdl2025.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xjix4miavi7txszwfrkfb64t/bafkreihzzycktqpvjp7avwvvlioto6n6ocufy3w5nbbouity3mcjbbmgmy)

HEY LOCALS: About to roll in a very minor Mastodon upgrade (4.4.5) which adds searching on quoots and fixes a couple of bugs.
As usual, you might get some Bad Gateway, refresh your view if you do.

@dalias I'll start using quotes more or less as soon as my two main clients, Tusky and mastodon.el, start supporting them. It's not stubbornness on my part holding me back, and I agree with your point about actual quoots having rich permissions support that make them the obviously better way.
