@Gargron I think this would be a bad idea, and for exactly the same reasons you ruled it out before.
It seems to me those looking for this are new here (as I am). They are just the loudest voices, as no one shouts much to retain a status quo. It's not needed, if they want they can put the direct link to a toot in their text.
It will be used to dunk on users. Of that there's no doubt
@ronanmcd @Gargron I think it will be ok, as long as there’s an opt out. Without the opt out it’s better to leave it as it is. But having the choice might be a good thing.
