Agreed about massive quote waterfalls. Right now, it limits all quote trains to just 2 quotes (so one quote and one nested quote), it will automatically delete anything deeper then that. If you are seeing that not happening on a post can you just point me to the thread/post and I can investigate further.
I can easily set it to allow only 1 level deep of a quote, but was thinking of making it setting in the general settings menu. It's like that on the app currently. I was thinking it would get buried in there and nobody would ever see it, so I wasn't sure if anyone would want it.
As for getting rid of the quotes, good point, I just added an X icon to the top right area of the quote so it's easier to delete a quote. you can also un-click the quote button not he post in question to remove quotes if it happens to be in your field of view (you may have to do a force refresh of your screen to see the new X icon -- force refresh is holding shift or ctrl and clicking the refresh icon in your browser toolbar)
