quote tweet
Shared with commentary
A quote tweet is a repost of someone else's tweet with your own commentary attached, allowing you to respond publicly while showing the original: She quote tweeted the announcement with a sarcastic "Sure, Jan.".
Unlike a simple retweet, which shares without comment, quote tweets often signal disagreement, mockery, or elaboration.
The feature has become central to how arguments and pile-ons unfold on the platform.
