 The fix would make Damus display and post quoted notes (i.e. event mentions) and replies to threads consistently with the other clients per the NIP-10 preferred spec.

Yes, in theory, Damus would be able to display a true standalone note with the quoted note positioned underneath. A note like that would have a single “e” tag with the “mention” marker. It would not have any “e” tags with “root” or “reply”. 
 I’m in for 50K sats to get this prioritized. 
 Always appreciate a bounty as an incentive and signal to the devs how important an issue is.

For context we have had 6 and 7 digit sats bounties open for over half a year. 
 I’m not bankrolled like that. I guess just keep it in the mix until it can be done, but it’s a core part of the UX and I think not should be a priority fix. 
 Just setting your expectations. Not asking for anything. Appreciate your continuous feedback 🤝 
 Why is no one claiming them or contributing?? I’d like to look at what i can do - 
 Yo @jack you wanna get in on this big bounty?

 yuh. maybe jack will do it. 
 I still think q is cleaner. When using e tags and markers clients are forced to pull down quotes when pulling the thread, which is a waste of bandwidth. 
 But yes we can filter them out using markers, but clients should be doing the right thing here and not wasting peoples bandwidth by using q tags 
 Oh, I never thought of it that way. That’s a good point. Has anyone proposed this as an amendment to NIP-18? 
 Yeah it will be pretty important for popular posts. No i don’t think it has been proposed yet. 
 I was already in the middle of cleaning up the language in that NIP and others that relate to event mentioning and referencing. I’ll take a stab at it. 
 Rise up q bros 
 Instead of q tags, just send the event ID to a proprietary cloud service and make it create a screenshot of the post, which you then upload as an image to nostr.build and insert the URL into the content with a giant hash and no imeta tag. Problem solved.
