@pfefferle Maybe like a „Trackback link“ in the comments? (You mean, when a blog article gets cited, right?)

@pfefferle In the trackbacks.

@pfefferle Blogging is part of the fediverse, but blogging is not social media. Do not detract from the blog post.

@Sascha @NickBohle @cyclingrichard aren't you interested in what the quote (text) was? don't you want to answer the quote?
isn't trackback/pingback a step back? https://indieweb.org/pingback#Problems

> In our experience, 99% of all trackbacks and pingbacks are spam. This is the easiest way for spammers to get a backlink from your site.

@cyclingrichard do you refer to incoming or outgoing quotes?

@pfefferle @NickBohle @cyclingrichard Of course, context would be nice and is needed. But a different type of formatting would be also helpful. That’s what I meant with reference to the trackbacks. The positioning of them, it was/is just at the same place as the comments.

@Sascha @NickBohle @cyclingrichard the "problem" is, that there is no unified way how themes show pingbacks.
so you simply suggest to separate them from the "normal" comments!?

@pfefferle The QuoteRequest activity is similar to a Pingback with an extended interactionPolicy, and I believe it should treat the quoted content as a remote object rather than displaying it directly within a comment. A quote is not a comment, after all.
If you really want to support it, I think it would make the most sense to post it under a post/quote subpage.

@pfefferle @Sascha @NickBohle @cyclingrichard The `send quoteRequest to` field sounds like a good approach.

@pfefferle @Sascha @cyclingrichard
Theme implementation is a crucial point. I remember that I once wrote an article how to separate comments and pingbacks in "The Morning After" theme back in 2008.
How comments and pingbacks look in Twenty Twenty-Four nowadays (see below).
Furthermore - for me - a comment / reply continues a conservation. A quote starts a new conservation.

@pfefferle I don't know enough about the topic to comment. I'd have to follow developments more closely to get a good idea of what is being prepared. I know that I want to pivot back towards social networks, rather than social media. It's good to have focused attention for individual blog posts. As I said, I need to spend more time following the conversation to give useful answers.
