Gab has quotes too, but I doubt they work with Misskey

@matrix @sjw @wowaname @mewmew @sakura @sjw they don't work even with other gab instances, it's just an API hack
@matrix @sjw @rin @sakura @mewmew @wowaname @sjw they don't work with anything except that individual server.

An aside: I wish people would stop saying "software has $feature" without qualifying what that feature actually is. For example, gab groups are just non federating hidden hashtags. Same goes for quotes, which don't federate either. Or all of the million features that misskey has

gab groups are more than just non federating hidden hashtags. It is crucially paired with a special frontend. In fact, it's this frontend that is being called groups.

Users in general do not usually make points about the backend. Feature requests such as emoji reacts and groups are frontend features so it is not fair to propose that something like gab groups which involves a nontrivial frontend edit is merely some backend hidden hashtag.
@fluffy @matrix @mewmew @rin @sakura @sjw @sjw @wowaname you're right, it's both a frontend change (the most important part) and a backend change. I'm not saying people aren't supposed to like it, but it's not at all the same feature as something like activitypub groups or gnu social groups.
