Ya know....I've been on Threads for a little bit now and experienced some interesting things.
Mastodon devs claim that they're taking so long to do Quote Posts because it's "not as simple as posting a link, like these third party apps are doing, its actually quite complex".
And here Threads is, doing exactly that. You post a Threads link into a post, it becomes a quote post....🤔
Is there some weird trickery behind the scenes going on that I'm not aware that is happening or....is it really that easy? I do feel like I'm being fooled by Threads.
