      Hopefully whenever mastodon gets quote posts we’ll see something similar pop up over here.

        You don’t need to wait on Mastodon to do it.

        Obviously, I’m not talking about you specifically – Threadiverse devs generally.

        For example, some of this functionality already exists on Friendica.

        Right now, you can crosspost to a Friendica group by mentioning the group actor handle (ex: @fediversenews@venera.social. And because Friendica supports quoted boosts, you can boost to a Friendica group through this method.

        Lemmy could easily support this feature.

      The article seems well-written, except that:

      the fediverse — the open social web powered by the protocol ActivityPub also used by Mastodon, Threads, Flipboard, and others.

      Seriously? Flipboard has like one thousand Monthly Active Users and we have like 50 times that, but we’re like “and others” lel… I guess they didn’t mention Pixelfed either tho and it’s a lot “hotter”…

        That article is intended for casual readers. These people might be more familiar with Flipboard than Lemmy or Pixelfed.

        The same way that people are familiar with Blackberry or Nokia despite none of them even reach mainstream market anymore.

      As with the fediverse, there are a lot of user curated blacklists to get rid of the problem children.

      Just don’t trust shinigamieyes, that shit got taken over by terfs a few years back and now lists a lot of innocent trans bloggers.

        Wait, what? That’s disappointing. I use Shinigamieyes, haven’t noticed anything weird yet.
