I am working on supporting quote post (I was not holding my breath for this feature to be implemented, TBH) in tinmop. I have met some pesky bugs related to those characters that occupy more than a column when rendered on a terminal (emoji, I am looking at you 🙂), but the results seems not too bad. Enjoy the recursive rendering! 🙂
Tinmop is a multi-protocol client that supports mastodon HTTP API.
