@felwert @UlrikeHahn @vbuendiar @ide This is such an intellectually dishonest argument. Displaying an inline link is not only natural but is also expected behavior, since every single microblogging platform *except* mastodon supports it. They went out of the way to not implement it.
The fact that the quotes are in the roadmad for years essentially proves my point that they don't have any goood evidence against them (yet, somehow, someone will always jump in the defense of the lack of quotes when you point out it's a bad idea). But it's not a strawman in any way, it's a such a clear deficiency that even the authors of the platform admit it!
