Take note that @phanpy doesn't support composing native quote posts yet.

It's a lot more work than expected. And also just trying this out from Mastodon web.

🧠 Quick brain dump.

Rendering:
- For official Mastodon web & apps, links to posts will still open web view instead of native view. They don’t unfurl.
- Do we stop rendering non-native quote posts if the post contains a native quote post? Or render both? How to (visually?) differentiate native vs non-native?
- Is quotes count separated from boost count? Mastodon web sums them up when shown on timeline, separate them on post page.

If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://mastodon.social/users/cheeaun/statuses/115226090694600450 on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)
