Mitra actually brings quite a lot new to the table. @silverpill brings in a lot of new ideas, including truly nomadic accounts. We have had a quoted post ability for some time, though using FEP-e232 rather than the FEP-044f that Mastodon is bringing support for. I believe our quoted posts show as a post with a link in clients that don't support it. I expect that if FEP-044f takes off Silverpill might change to support that too, I know that he read the FEP and thinks the way that Mastodon has decided to handle access, security, and control is well thought out.
The other advantage of a small project is that the developer, Silverpill, will take time to explain usage issues, installation or running problems and listen to suggestions.

Just FYI the Mitra quoted post shows on Mastodon as a quoted post successfully.
Mastodon got support for displaying quoted posts in the latest update, next one should add creation too.
This may vary from client to client but at least the web client is displaying it ok. So it seems Mitra's quoting is compatible?
