The first beta release of Mastodon 4.5.0 is ready for testing!
Quote posts are finally here, as well as automated fetching of remote replies and a lot of other improvements.
For server moderators, there is also a way to block registrations based on keywords appearing in usernames.
Please test it out and provide feedback 💬
If all goes well, we plan to release the final 4.5.0 version within the next 3 weeks.

in reply to Fluqzy • • •Yeah, I'm a lot more excited about this than the quoting!
It will make post threads much less confusing for everyone.

As far as I know this would work on the apps too?
If the replies have been fetched to the server by any method, the apps would be showing them?

It means everyone would see all the replies in a thread.
At the moment you only see a selection of replies depending on how your server federates.

and also (which I love): live updating comments in a thread while you're reading them, seems to work perfectly so far!

I found out while reading comments to a more popular post, suddenly there was a little popup on the bottom informing me about new posts, if you click on it, it will load all the new comments live.
