  • Gitea version (or commit ref): 1.8.2

I would like to be able to quote user contributions in issues, but have no option to copy the source code. That is why I have to re-add the source code of their comments if I want to quote them properly.

It would be much easier if it were possible to view the source of an issue comment and/or if there would be a quoting button, copying the comment you would like to quote with > marks on the left into the commenting form.

GitHub is actually offering the latter, if clicking on the three dots on the right of each comment.

Where is the value in keeping the count of open issues artificially small with mechanisms like this?
