My point is just that, it should have been a repost and not a quote. The quoter added nothing. A repost would have been the appropriate action instead of quoting. I’m not sure how this is not making sense 😂

Ah ok, I didn't realize that. Actually I didn't know there was even a distinct difference lol. Some clients automatically quote post reposts I believe. Others don't allow quote posts unless you manually add the note id you want to quote to the new note

Ok, I think I see the difference. If I repost someone's note, it's a 'boost' and any zaps go back to the original note. If I quote post and include someone else's note in mine, it's a new note and zaps go to the new note. Think I got it.

Yea that’s it. On the one hand I’m nit picking—it’s a single post with a meme after all 😂 On the other hand there’s an underlying principle that to me is the real issue, and I feel makes it worth highlighting.
