Add “Reply to” specific message
Feature Description
I'm a channel, a lot of people are writing and I want to reply to a particular message without copying text (is hard to copy text in Safari iOS) and automatically copy it for me.
The reply format might be:
CopiedMessage >> and here I can write text
Maybe if you can also configure the format it's in. I usually quote messages like
<author> "<quote>" <my message>
Copying messages is discouraged in old skool irc. Message tags are an upcoming part of IRCv3 though, and some ircds do support it already, but that is the task of the server, not the client, to handle that pass around. To what extent thelounge should be trying to accomodate message tags now, im not sure. https://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/message-tags
Maybe implement something like IRCcloud is doing with +reply tags? https://blog.irccloud.com/reply-threads/
