Quoting posts changed
Has the way we can quote posts changed intentionally? Now it gives a preview instead of the whole quoted post, but there's no way to highlight specific parts of a post by emboldening etc. This was useful to respond to specific parts of a post. Can this be brought back?

But of course I have noticed that there is a tendency these days to call a thread a discussion, so perhaps that button…

Whole thread showing as read when it's not
Hello MSE; hope you're all having a fab Christmas break. So what's happening is that all new posts on a thread are showing as read when I've only read the first page of them. I subscribe to many and it's difficult to keep track if I'm catching up on threads from page 2 onwards in my followed bookmark page. If I'm on page…
