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?

A colleague showed me how to do this.
Steps:
Put your cursor in the Team's Chat box.
Press Shift and > (greater than)
You'll see a grey box in the Team's Chat box.
Copy and paste what you want to reply to.
Press Enter, the cursor advances to the next line.
Press Enter again, your cursor advances out of the reply box.
Type your reply.

As of today 2021-Sep, this feature with ">" works only in the main Teams window, but doesn't in the individual chat windows. At least with the Teams version that my company uses right now. So I would say this workaround has a small impact.
