qoto.org has a patch for quoting, you can't quote while replying though. i guess it's a technical limitation, but i haven't investigated.

i use the web ui in the browser anyway, so it isn't a big problem for me. a trick which isn't widely known is that you can put many links in the search field of mastodon (idk about pleroma etc.) and it will load that thread into the ui.

my point is: sacrificing functionality to appease people who literally don't care - which is the mass of people unfortunately - is only hurting oneself.
