The > was the original (?) convention for email.

But seriously HN should just allow basic quotes. And, while they are at it, increase the size of voting arrows to make it possible to reliably hit them on mobile. I get it’s somewhat nice to have a site that does not constantly redesign everything, but pretending you lost the password for the server is just overdoing it in the opposite direction.

I was left satisfied when they added the unvote/undown buttons. I only miss on my first try about 10% of the time :)

It took me two attempts to upvote this comment. :)

At least I didn't accidentally Flag something today.
