   Hi @crepels , I'm an engineer on Threads and just wanted to let you know that we added support for Quote posts on ActivityPub!

   Your awesome blog post pointed this out:
   https://seb.jambor.dev/posts/understanding-activitypub-part-4-threads/

   The changes rolled out earlier this week. Now quote posts look nice on Firefish 😇

   Thanks again for writing the post, we have been sharing it with a ton of folks who are curious and what an introduction and technical tutorial 🙌🏻

     @crepels
     the reasoning was that `quoteUrl` and `quoteUri` aren't officially keys in the activity streams namespace, so we figured it's better to use something that's obviously unofficial (_misskey_quote). I don't think there were any compatibility concerns either.

     This was helpful advice from @trwnh btw!

     @pcottle Thanks, that's great! 😀

     I see that you are using the _misskey_quote field. If you are able to share, I'd be interested in what made you choose this over quoteUrl or quoteUri. Is there better support for _misskey_quote in other Fediverse services?

     Tim Chambers repeated this.

     @objectinspace @crepels yep of course -- I should do better with the Alt text on these.

     The image shows a rendering of a post from Christopher Su who is quote-posting a post from Jesse Chen. This is a quote post on Threads, and it is rendered as something similar in Misskey/Firefish.

     There is a link preview of the post attached, and also a rendering of Jesse's post with some indentation and a separate border. Before these AP changes, only the link preview would have appeared.

     @pcottle Would you mind describing the image? I can't see it.

     @jaykul @crepels totally agree, I hope some softwares will detect that the link == quoted post and drop the link preview

     @pcottle @crepels it feels a little weird that you're getting the link preview *plus* the embedding.
