Coming soon on your Mastodon server… The long awaited quote posts, with user-control (you can chose if you want to be quoted on a per-post basis, change it later, and retract any quote of your post)
Amazing work by the team 
Expect a blog post with all the details in a few weeks, support in the mobile apps, then we will enable the feature on mastodon.social, then release Mastodon 4.5
And now thanks to @chaosexanima I can show you how the retractation works:
- you get a notification when someone quotes you
- on their post, you have a new menu to remove their quote of your post
- you confirm, and your quote is removed and shown as having been retracted
- the quote is no longer displayed on the original post
This is built on FEP-044f (Consent-respecting quote posts, https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/044f/fep-044f.md), which requires the quoted account to provide a stamp proving that they approved the quote.
If there is no such stamp (or it has been invalidated), then Mastodon (and other software supporting the FEP) will not display the quote.
If the quoted account does not support the FEP, no stamps will be issued, and the quote will not be displayed either, only the link (as before).
