Now that #Mastodon supports quotes, there are three important points to know with #Fedilab

- You can change the default privacy for quoting your messages in Settings>Profile (default anyone can quote you)

- You can customize this privacy for each message (when composing)

- If you don't see the merged Boost/Quote button, make sure that you didn't disable it in Settings > Timelines

When composing, it is possible to customize the privacy for quoting your message. Here a menu is open with the three visibility choices.

Slowly integrating into other elements.

Some issues need thinking:
- Account's posts don't have `exclude_quotes` filter? Should it have such filter? https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/accounts/#statuses
- Should searches have `has:quote` operator? Probably should add as feature request on #mastodon 🤔
- Grouped notifications for quotes? https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/grouped_notifications/ — I could probably try this on client-side first
- "Quotes" filter on Phanpy's Catch-up?

We’re excited to release Mastodon 4.5 into the world! Arriving just a few months after the last release, this version brings the long-awaited Quote Posts feature, along with many other goodies. Here’s a quick look (you should read our blog post for more!)

https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/11/mastodon-4.5

My test instance has been updated to the just released 4.5 Mastodon, along with the 2.5 release of the TangerineUI theme.

The changelog for this one is a full on novel. Kudos to every single contributor and the mastodon team as a whole for their work. And @nileane for TangerineUI :)

This specific new feature in Mastodon 4.5 - reply fetching - makes a huge difference in small communities.

When you open the detail view of a message, it triggers a task to pull in all replies it can from remote servers, and displays them after a few seconds.

Looking forward to third party apps integrating this a bit more naturally without having to refresh the detail view.

Sind Sie Administrator einer Mastodon-Instanz?

⚠️ Aktualisieren Sie jetzt auf Version 4.5! ⚠️

Ältere Versionen von Mastodon enthalten bekannte Sicherheitslücken. Außerdem können veraltete Instanzen bestimmte Arten von Inhalten (z. B. Zitate), die in der neuesten Version eingeführt wurden, möglicherweise nicht richtig anzeigen oder übermitteln.

Um die Sicherheit, Kompatibilität und Benutzerfreundlichkeit für Ihre Nutzer zu gewährleisten, sollten Sie Ihre Mastodon-Instanz so bald wie möglich auf Version 4.5 aktualisieren.

Updated my test mastodon instance to 4.5 RC2, all from a remote cabin in the woods using Tailscale to connect to my little mini pc's at home.

I see mastodon.social is already at a 4.6 nightly - they are so ready to get 4.5 out the door! :)
