Being able to quote reply to a message in thread is extremely unreliable and inconsistent.
I've faced the following:
  1. Quote option not showing up at all
  2. Quote and command bar overlapping
  3. When triple clicking to select a line/paragraph of text, the quote option will appear after a double click and then disappear on the triple click.
  4. Clicking the Quote button does nothing.
  5. The Quote option doesn't show up when the message in chat is a post.
"Quote" should be integrated into the command bar as "Reply" rather than a small tooltip button.
  • If the user has selected part of the message, that part will be quoted into the Reply box.
  • If the user doesn't have any text selected the it will just @mention the user
  • If the user clicks the reply button in a main chat as compared to in a thread, the behaviour is the same as the current "Reply in Thread" button.
- Currently the "Reply in Thread" button shows even if the user is in a thread, the above behaviour will unify the experience.
