 @stephenwhq @Gargron given we have evidence of how the feature has been used in Twitter I believe the overall result would be negative. It encourages mockery and abusive “pile-ons” while simultaneously discouraged actual conversations. It’s a poisonous feature. 2 comments
@stephenwhq @Gargron any tool / feature has the capability of positive use, of course, but we have to consider if that is worth the negative. In the case of quotes, and going on Twitter as the real world example of it, I’d say it’s not. |

@wiredfire @Gargron Yes, as a longtime Twitter user its a feature which underpins some of its most toxic features. It's also powerful to assist community mobilisation, help small creators spread the woerd, etc. I'm on the fence although a feature allowing you not to be quote tweeted is very useful.
