Now that quote posts are a thing on Mastodon, we need an insufferably cutesy nickname for them that everyone hates but still gets used anyway.

To that end I nominate “Quoots”, a portmanteau of ‘quote’ and ‘toot’. I believe it’s the worst possible option, solidly cementing Mastodon in particular and the Fediverse in general as having the worst slang on the internet.

Please quoot to spread the word.

@Fruan@kind.social They're similar to quote tweets, so how about "queefs"? ​:neocat_googly_woozy:

@starlight @Fruan I support this. It feels like tooting should be supplemented by queefing, i just couldn't think of a good linguistic derivation.
