Quote chat message in reply on desktop
When chatting on the mobile version, I can tap-hold a chat message and get a "reply" option that quotes the original message in the reply. How can I do this with the desktop app?

It's August the 3rd, 2021 and "reply to a specific message" on desktop is not a feature on Teams. The single most important feature on any chat app is not a feature on Teams.
Can any product owner at Microsoft tells me why? Have you ever need to reply to to specific message in your whole project management life?
List of chat apps that can (many years ago): Skype, LINE, Whataspp, WeChat, Telegram, Snapchat, KakaoTalk, Slack, Discord, QQ, Viber and literally every other chat app.
Not Teams.

So a consultant from O365 explained me that due to a too much CPU resources consumption for this feature its not implemented. i know it sounds like a lame excuse but its what he told me...

That can't be correct (them not you). My phone has the CPU power but my desktop doesn't. There has to be something more to this behind the scenes.

I really hope Microsoft can implement this feature in my lifetime...
