Mobile long-press menu reordered?????

Can you guys please put the long-press menu on mobile back to its previous order?? There seems to be no good reason that the Quote button is now on top where the Edit Message button used to be (for my own messages) and the Copy Text button was for other people's messages. I keep accidentally clicking the Quote button when I mean something else, and have even actually sent a message that was a Quote, while thinking the whole time that I was editing my last message. If the message is more than a couple lines long, it's really easy to miss the > at the beginning or the @ at the end, since they're outside the text window, and so it's basically impossible to tell that I've accidentally hit quote.

I saw your social media person say it had something to do with the possibility of a Reply feature, but I don't know why that would mean you have to move Quote to the top! Please it would be great if you could put it back as it was. Thank you.

    Totally agree with this. The reordering of edit had made me lose so much time

    Yes, please change it back. Or at least put edit message back on top, I've been messing up at LEAST twice an hour

    Yeah on some servers the quote button is already replaced with the reply button, but I think it's more convenient to keep the edit on type.

    I understand that they want the reply button at the top, but I think it should probably go (Reactions)->(Edit Message)->Copy Text->Reply->whatever else. Maybe you could switch the Copy Text to be lower than Reply, but even still. The reactions and Edit Message buttons should be back where they were.

    Completely agree with this. Edit is so commonly used, there is absolutely no reason to change it from its original position at the top just to make room for the reply feature, which I’m pretty sure most people won’t use NEARLY as often as the edit function. Especially on mobile when typos from autocorrect are rampant.

    Please carefully think when changing the positioning of the menu in the future to avoid frustrations like this.
