MicrosoftNow in Public Preview: Quoted Reply for Desktop [web coming soon]
Description
Quoted reply allows you to select messages in chat that you want to include in your response. It is a great way to add context and clarity with who you are conversing with whether it is...
The functionality is good but PLEASE do not remove the existing feature of pressing > to create a quoted message. It is not always that we users use the quote to quote a reply within the same chat. It could be to quote text from other applications, emails, documents and etc.
By forcing users to have to click the additional formatting icon and then click on the quote is just plain stupid. This reply feature should be just an added feature instead of a replacement to the existing feature.

That is good to know. For a moment I was panicking because it is no longer behaving as so on my desktop version of Teams.
- I found it works if you type > and then press space. Before, it would open automatically. So it's just a slight change in behavior.
