Can only quote once on mobile

Bug report for @codinghorror and colleagues:

When I try to quote a person’s reply in mobile, it works - once.

If I try to quote anyone else, the “Quote reply” button pops up, but nothing happens when I click on it.

If I delete the original quote, it won’t come back, either - in order to make it work, I need to cancel the reply and start over.

This has been happening for a while, but it finally got annoying enough for me to complain about it.

I’m running Chrome on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow (but it did the same thing on Lollipop).

Thanks for all the hard work!

Are you using the quote marks on the menu above before you cut and copy (for the second time)? It was trial and error for me, but that’s how I was able to embed the second, third, fourth, and so on quotes.

Okay, thanks, that seems to work.

… I have no idea why they’d have it work that way, but it works.

Yeah, I know. I use my phone about 98.9% of the time, so I just knew there had to be a way.

No repro on iOS (I just quoted twice using highlight and pop up Quote Reply button click) but let me try on Android in a bit.
