I think it's pretty clear by now that the owner of X is using it as a political tool, so discussing technical details of the site seems pointless. I did like the new anti-toxicity features on Bluesky though:

> I did like the new anti-toxicity features on Bluesky though: [The Verge article about a new Bluesky feature that allows cited accounts to remove themselves as a citation in other accounts' posts retroactively.]

But this feature only reduces the usefulness of the quote/citation feature.

In low trust quote scenarios, users would likely revert to sharing screenshots of the referenced post. This maintains control over the referenced content, but reduces authenticity since screenshots can be faked.

Maybe I'm yelling at the clouds here, but I think all content in the post should be controlled by the account making the post - much like the original Twitter RT convention. ...or HN.

Do you have any differentiation or pros/cons that may warrant supporting multiple different approaches that you care to share?
