   I've enabled post quoting on infosec.exchange, infosec.space, and convo.casa. On the web interface, the boost icon will now bring up a small menu that will let you either boost or quote. You can only quote posts that the author has granted permission to, and since this is a new feature, there probably won't be too many.

   Reminder that most other fedi-software allows quote posting without the mastodon-style consent, as does most mastodon mobile apps, so be aware of that.

     @jernej__s right - you should get a notification each time someone quotes you, so it’s the same sound/experience as when someone mentions you

     @jerry @jernej__s That is I think exactly how it should work but you should be able to tell your client to ignore and hide them always if you wish….

     @jerry Interestingly, the web interface bleeps when somebody quotes me.

     @jerry @tchambers Ah, that explains it (why is the settings glyph ↕︎ instead of ⚙︎ – I knew I disabled the sounds somewhere, but couldn't remember where).

     Tim Chambers repeated this.

     @jerry @tchambers BTW, at least in 3-column mode, the settings for quotes specifically look different from everything else:

     @tchambers @jerry I don't mind notifications at all, I just don't want bleeps :)

     @jernej__s @tchambers you can turn the beeps off in the settings at the top of the notifications timeline.
