Florenz :verified:

How can it be that there are still no native quote reposts in Mastodon? I know it's somewhere on the roadmap, but I would have expected the priority for such an essential feature to be much higher.

Also... What is this eye thing?

@florenz The video features a static image of a Mastodon tweet by a user named Florenz, who is verified, indicated by a blue checkmark next to their name. The tweet reads: "How can it be that there are still no native quote reposts in Mastodon? I know it's somewhere on the roadmap, but I would have expected the priority for such an essential feature to be much higher." The tweet is accompanied by hashtags #mastodon, #repost, and #quote, with two additional hashtags indicated by "und 2 weitere" (and 2 more). The tweet is displayed on a Mastodon interface, with a red arrow pointing to the 'eye' icon in the top right corner, suggesting an action to view more details or options. The background of the tweet includes a profile picture of Florenz and a 'Zurück' (Back) button on the left, indicating the ability to navigate back. The video remains unchanged throughout, focusing on the tweet and the 'eye' icon.

@florenz To be honest, I don’t know. @nileane should be able to explain this.

@florenz @nileane @barning it’s hide/show content warnings.

@fihu @nileane @barning aaaaaaaaaaah, OK. Confusing if there is no CW.

@barning @florenz The eye button lets you toggle Content Warnings in a thread all at once (this is useful if you're viewing a thread with a ton of posts hidden behind a Content Warning)

@nileane thanks for the clarification! There should be some kind of explanation/tooltip as it's confusing when there is no CW in a post. :)

@florenz I only make a theme on top of the default UI. You should address this feedback to Mastodon! :D

@nileane thanks for the read, the thought process behind it looks reasonable, but it seems it will still take some time. Too bad.
