@BBCRD@social.bbc In truth, it has been pretty disappointing to see rather limited engagement by the BBC accounts. There was quite a lot of excitement when BBC joined Mastodon but the accounts do not post regularly, and there isn't an official BBC News or BBC World account which are the main areas of interest for most audiences that access BBC services. There are other official media outlets that are much more integrated on Mastodon. #ActivityPub #BBC #Journalism #Mastodon #Media #News #SocialMedia

@matunos@mastodon.social @Julianoe@mastodon.xyz @wiredfire@mas.to @renchap@oisaur.com @cestfleuve@mastodon.nz I'd prefer to know rather than not. The other way, one would never know. One could block accounts in that instance and report them. I've had my fair share on Twitter, especially during the height of the pandemic engagement. But again, it depends on intention.

@Julianoe@mastodon.xyz @wiredfire@mas.to @renchap@oisaur.com @cestfleuve@mastodon.nz My opinion reposted here: Having QTs where users are notified if they are quoted is much better than the option that people are using now - to screenshot posts. Users have no control and are not notified. I use QTs to 'cite the source' and to give context. As an academic, it is very efficient and more contextually fair way to comment. As with most things, how a feature is used is the issue. If someone has malintent they will use any feature to harm.

@renchap@oisaur.com @hackbyte My feeling is that having QTs where users are notified if they are quoted is much better than the option that people are using now which is to screenshot posts. Users have no control and are not notified. I use QTs to 'cite the source' and to provide context to comments. As an academic, it is a very efficient and much more contextually fair way to comment. As with most things, how a feature is used is the issue. If someone has malintent they will use any feature that way.

@renchap@oisaur.com Thanks, I'd heard rumours. I think it is a real limitation to some engagement. I can appreciate the technical considerations.

@renchap@oisaur.com Is the QT function going to be included?
