Are there any EEVblog server app you'd like to see installed?

Well.

Unless my browser is acting different (I use Firefox which must now be a rare occurence), I'm pretty sure the problem lies in that you're trying to split quotes in a different way than I do, but I've always used the same way even with the old editor. That again would be very typical of the GUI hell that developers have to handle.

OK, I reanabled it to check.
It uses monospace in text mode.
In default mode it's indeed the same font, but larger than normally for some bizarre reason.

I wouldn't mind a large font for the forum view, as it's a little small for me on some monitors, but clicking the zoom button is easy enough.

It could be bigger indeed but at least it is still readable. Some websites use fonts that don't render well with anti-aliasing switched off resulting in unreadable garbage.

There was a way to select a portion of the post you want to quote and it would add just this part as a quote. You can do this multiple times for different part of the post or even multiple posts.

Blimey! I just copy the relevant text, hit the quote button, paste. Didn't realise there was a cleverer way to make it minutely easier :)

OK so that is the actual issue I missed, yeah I can see that being irritating if you quote a lot from long posts.
Although I just used the generic "insert quote" button, as I had no idea this was a feature.
Seems like an abandoned mod: https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=170830.0
