Just in case you are wondering why I do quote posts relatively often:
I use friendica to be able to communicate with people in the diaspora network and people in the the activityPub network. These are not compatible - so activityPub folks can't communicate directly with diaspora folks and vice versa.
Friendica is able to communicate with both.
By using quote post functionality my intention is to to share something I've seen in one of the two networks with the folks of the other one. This works in both directions. People still can't directly communicate with the original authors due to the network barrier, but with friendica I can simply do reshares this way. In my opinion this is an awesome use case for quote posts

I've seen this posting over there:
https://diaspora.glasswings.com/posts/38e15790be26013bc04e448a5b29e257
and wanted to add a caption to the picture, that's why I decided to not re-share it, but to put a reference to the origin.
