Please DO NOT quote post me.

The feature isn’t even here yet, but just the idea of it is causing me so much anxiety. Quote tweets were the source of so much stress, harassment & misery for me on twitter. It’s an instant anxiety trigger.

So I’m just putting the request out there now & will add this to my bio when quote posts are a reality.

Please. I am begging you – DO NOT quote post me, even for positive reasons. Boosting is great. Replies are great. Quote posts NO.

Thanks 💙

@dangero That could possibly work, but I think the elephant in the room in all the criticism of the Mastodon project just pointing people at mastodon.social is that discovery without recommendation engines is very very difficult to implement, let alone get right. Also, just because I think your idea's ultimately bad doesn't mean you shouldn't continue to throw stuff at the wall to see what resonates and what doesn't.
