We’re excited to announce that Mastodon 4.4 is now generally available as an upgrade for all Mastodon servers. The update brings improvements to profiles, navigation, list management, media controls, server moderation notes, and more.
Mastodon 4.4 also contains the first part of our Quote Post implementation - display of incoming Quote Posts. Full support (including creation) will be part of the next version: Mastodon 4.5, coming later this year. We’re already hard at work on the next set of updates for that release.
We hope you’ll enjoy the enhancements in Mastodon 4.4, and we’re grateful for your support and feedback.
I wonder why there’s no preview for the quote posts in that article. And I need to check if Tusky plans to implement it…
Edit: Tusky does https://codeberg.org/tusky/Tusky/issues/5181
We chose not to add an image for quote posts because you cannot create and post them in Mastodon yet, and the number of other Fediverse servers that implement the relevant FEP is limited, so it would be over promising what you’ll see in 4.4 - the full feature is set for 4.5.
