Gregory's Server@Gargron
What I would want a quote feature for is to say "@third_party you will like this" without bothering the original poster with the extra ping of a reply. What do you suggest as an alternative?

 @DialMforMara Yesss I sometimes want to point somebody to a thread and don't know if I can reply to the thread but then make it a DM to just the user who would be interested? Does removing the mentions of everybody else break the link to the thread? @Gargron  @Gargron Yay! Now I can tag people without potentially annoying thread participants. But in a way that's oblique enough to not invite asinine behavior. I gotta say, I would like to have a quote feature but I quit Twitter so long ago I had no idea it led to so much unpleasantness. So good on ya for keeping it out. @DialMforMara  @DialMforMara sharing the link? i don't think it needs to be a dedicated feature if it's not notifying that person or being added as a child |
@DialMforMara @Gargron Agreed, like on IG they have a button to send any one post to a specific user, as a direct message.
