Oh, nice! So I set the quote in between the greater then and less then symbols and it will show the quote? That is pretty cool. Thank you.

Not quite I think. I believe this uses markdown, which just uses the > at the beginning of a line

> This is a quote

should become

This is a quote

And if you need more lines, you just keep symboling

> 1
> 2
> 3

This never changed for those of us who used old reddit ;)

I had no idea it was different for new Reddit, I never touched that interface except to hurriedly find my preferences and set them back to Old. :)

Well it did because everyone on old Reddit already knew how to use it LOL

And I believe you can do a multi line quote with 3:

>>> hello darkness my old friend
I've come to speak with you again
More
Lines

hello darkness my old friend
I've come to speak with you again
More
Lines

Unless I'm wrong and this isn't actually working

Hmm well that looks like it worked too well

Nah, multi-line is just

> line 1
line 2
line 3

line 1
line 2
line 3

You only need multiple > if you want paragraphs:

> paragraph 1

> paragraph 2

paragraph 1

paragraph 2
