Bad presentation of quote toots in Piefed
I tried sharing a song to a music community on Piefed using a quote toot, and the title ends up being “Re: mastodon” rather than the first line of my message: https://piefed.social/c/obscuremusic/p/1604791/microblog-re-mastodon
A perfect quote toot implementation is not necessary, but it would be nice to see the post title fixed!
@piefed_meta
Edit: it seems the inclusion of the link made this post suffer from the same problem. That was not intentional, but underlines the point I guess.

You can just put the url of the Mastodon post you want to quote into the Link/url field.
Some mobile apps will render it the same as the PF web app but probably not many.
That looks cool!
Testing on Voyager, Interstellar and Boost, none of them render it in any useable way, but for the webui it’s definitely a win.
That doesnt change anything about displaying proper Mastodon quotes that are posted from Mastodon to Piefed though, right?
Right :(
