QT discourse 

I honestly don't understand why people want the QT ability, basically to start a new thread using someone else's words (and adding your own).

Why not just reply in Public mode? Your followers will see it, and you'll be part of the conversation. What's the disadvantage?

@ceoln Replying in public mode means that not the whole Fediverse can see it. Only your followers.

What if you want to display someone else's toot to put them in a spotlight for the whole Fediverse to see? Like 'See, this is a great plubication!' or whatever. Usually useful in journalism or science stuff. Which is why Qoto has it I suppose.

Hm, I don't understand what that means. Public mode means that anyone can see it, that's why it's called that? There's a followers-only mode that's visible only to followers. I think I'm missing something key here. :)
