@julia I know why the choice was made.
Nevertheless, other Fediverse software has that feature, and it's been available for years.
Is Friendica more toxic than Mastodon?
@atomicpoet@mastodon.social @julia@friendica.federated.nz I think this comment on this github issue made a good point about quote reposts: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/20673#issuecomment-1330189196

I agree, its a good comment.
That said QT has been a feature in the fediverse for years now (QOTO being the first to adopt it outside of misskey)... I have yet to see it used for abuse anymore so than a regular toot would.
It essentially serves the smae function as posting a link to a toot at the end of your own toot... maybe the naysayers should make adding links to toots impossible too.
