    No, green text is used to strawman the comment you are replying to

    Or tell a story about what sopposedlh happened to you

    Rarely used to quote someone

      I see. However, there’s no > in the Russian layout. So they’d have to switch to English, type >, switch back to Russian, type и, and then switch again to English to continue typing the post. That’d be strange to say the least.

        On 4chan, if you reply to a post it puts the > in for you. He just deleted what was there and typed in something else.

        At least I think that’s how it works. I could be wrong, since I haven’t set foot in 4chan in like a decade.
