Sometimes when I backspace too far it ends up in the quote box, I can't then start a new paragraph out of the box

    Yes! This can be quite frustrating having to start all over again because you're trapped in the quote box.
    Drives me nuts because I have to delete the whole thing again too 😭

    Hopefully something can be done

    Thanks for the flag @Salix_alba_2019. :)

    Interesting one. Now you mention it, I think this has happened to me a couple of times. I have a hunch that we won't be able to fix this but we can mention it just in case. I agree it's super frustrating being 'trapped' in the quote!

    Does un-quoting and re-quoting solve the problem? @Aidan too. :)

    Update on this one:

    We can't fix this because it's part of how the interface works (frustratingly!). That being said, you can fix it yourself fairly easily by un-quoting, adding in some extra line breaks, then re-quoting as you need to.

    I realise it's a bit of a faff, but it should only take a few seconds. :)
