   @silverpill how do I quote post a "retweet" here in the mitra UI? I only see the repost button.

     There's no retweet button, but you can use special [[url]] syntax to add a quote to your post:

     For example:

     [[https://mitra.karapara.net/objects/018aeaed-c9cc-a798-924d-111378bcefb8]]

     Rendered as:

     https://mitra.karapara.net/objects/018aeaed-c9cc-a798-924d-111378bcefb8

     The URL of the post is available via post time stamp in the mitra UI.

     @silverpill thanks for letting me know. Any plans on adding "retweet with comment" button?

     @k4r4b3y I think the button could simply insert [[url]] into a new post.

     Do you want it to notify the author about a quote (by default there's no notification, quote is just a link to another post).

     Also note that quotes are not supported by Mastodon and Pleroma (although Pleroma may implement them soon). Users of these services will see a regular link without preview.
