Allow disabling markdown quotes

See original GitHub issue

Platform: web Version: most recent

I am opening this as a bug, because in my eyes, it is. Please add a setting to disable the rendering of >quotes as rich text, similar to the emoji setting. I don’t think I am exaggerating when I say that a lot of users find those are awful, and just want plaintext arrows instead.

Sorry, we currently support markdown for messages and don’t have an interest in using our own markdown specification. As a workaround, there is the /plain command which doesn’t use any markdown processing.

The markdown is parsed by commonmark. If you want them to change the behaviour raise it with them. vector-im/element-meta#330 is the issue about changing markdown parsers.
