@popvulture I was looking for the correct way using the tildes and couldn’t find it. Thank you!

How do I quote just one sentence from someone's post to respond to?

Select the text you want to quote, then either hit "quote" or a little quote thingy should pop up.

I still don’t get it as when I hit quote it takes the entire post…

[Tago Mago]

Maybe it’s device specific…?

@goosehd I’m on an iPhone 14 Pro, duck duck go, iOS 26

[Mizmazzle]

@Twistlock yup! When I try that on my iPhone it takes the whole passage.

@Twistlock same as I, but when the blue quote button is pushed it copies all of the text in that post.

Maybe works on Android only

Grrr....works on my laptop. Why does it have to be so hard being an iphone user all the time??

Here’s something I think a lot of you don’t know…if you hit reply instead of quote (works with quote also) and then hover over the area I circled in the picture, it will show you the post that was replied to:

By doing so, it keeps the threads much cleaner and fluid. When you quote everyone’s posts, it gets extremely hard to follow. Also, if you quote a post with a lot of images, it slows down loading for those of us with slow internet.

Some of you may noticed that your posts have been edited and that is one of the reasons why it’s being done.
