This is built on FEP-044f (Consent-respecting quote posts, https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/044f/fep-044f.md), which requires the quoted account to provide a stamp proving that they approved the quote.
If there is no such stamp (or it has been invalidated), then Mastodon (and other software supporting the FEP) will not display the quote.
If the quoted account does not support the FEP, no stamps will be issued, and the quote will not be displayed either, only the link (as before).

For Mastodon API developers: there is no documentation (yet) for the APIs around composing quote posts, but this will come soon. We added documentation for displaying quote posts (https://docs.joinmastodon.org/entities/Status/#quote), which is already supported in Mastodon 4.4 and we encourage you to support it in your clients as this will soon be available to all users. #mastodev

@renchap@oisaur.com This is not even an approved FEP. It's a draft. Why build features based on something that isn't even real and then pretend it is legitimate?
