Seems to work for me on Android. You just can't click into the quote area or you will get stuck. This is the same on desktop and has always been an issue, not anything new.

I agree it's an annoying bug, though, even when I've figured out how to work around it.

i just tried and i couldnt click outside of the quote area, this is what happened



after entering text in the quote, only then could i enter this text below. so right now it seems that if i want to quote someone i have to add temporary text in the quote before it will allow me to add text below

I gotta say, I'm not crazy about the new forum appearance on desktop. No colour differentiation between read and unread threads, and no colour highlighting of read threads with new posts. All the info is now in the "new/# new" tag, which makes it harder to spot new activity at a glance.

Also, the text is smaller now, and the emoticons are HUGE. 😕

OK, I think I see what you are saying. It only works sometimes. I'll be sure to see about getting this fixed.

I have to agree, I thought I had tripped Microsoft  'Ease of Access' mode for a moment. It's a bit clunky eh?

Yeah, it looks pretty annoying now. Massive text, too much bold, and all black and white.
