Hello !Friendica Support,

is sharing as a quote no longer possible with Friendica? At least I can no longer find the button.

This thread reminds me to the discussion, whether the unlock screen could be mistaken for the telephone dial screen... or some heated discussions about content warnings.

I can understand why it seems confusing. I guess someone would expect quote mark to quote comment text into reaction instead of sharing it.

Maybe someone here can find better icon for it for better #UX ?

Edit: Thinking about it, wouldn't it be enough to use "share" icon instead of quote marks as you aren't really quoting anything, but sharing whole post (with your commentary)?

Nothing is "boosted/angekurbelt" here. It implies an intention to exaggerate something. This is something I would expect from companies that care about the attention economy. Something is happening here that I would describe as pointing to something.

As I said - I don't think it matters what do I think (I actually thought it's called boost in Friendica too until now 😀 )

To me boost feels more logical as when I share something, then it's me who shares it - not the original poster. When I boost, I give original post new (my) audience - boosting it's viewer count in process
