Professor Jeff Jarvis and Dr. Jonathan Flowers led a discussion regarding the migration of journalists from Twitter to Mastodon. Dr. Flowers argued that the lack of a "quote tweet" function on Mastodon is inherently racist because it prevents "call and response" culture prevalent in Black Twitter. Critics of this view suggested that the open-source nature of the platform allows any group to fork the code and add desired features themselves.
