If you quote stuff

Like this

It will wrap to the user's screen width. We are all using different screen widths and your stuff wasn't wrapped, so it's harder to read.

Click the "source" link below my comment to see how I did a quote. Blank line must be before and after the quoted material.

The term Remote Access Trojan or RAT was initially popular for describing the advanced threats of the mid 1990s through maybe 2010. The term Advanced Persistent Threat or APT is cited as first being used by USAF Colonel Greg Rattray in 2006, it soon became common for describing precisely targeted threats using advanced techniques and typically lurking unseen for an extended time to extract data, gather intelligence for later attacks, or sabotage systems.

A true APT is very advanced and persistent. They are complex and sophisticated, especially the nation-state-sponsored ones. And they are persistent: analysis has shown that some have been in place undetected for several years.

Thank YOU!!!!!!!!!

So you just have to put that character and then cut and paste the quote to it. Then put a blank line above and below, right?

You need the greater than sign, a space, then paste your text. If there is not a blank line between paragraphs, they will all become one paragraph so put a blank line between paragraphs. Begin the second paragraph with > and a space too.

Below my comment above, click the "..." menu, then click "source". It will show you how I did it. Example:

> this will be formatted as a quote

Voat uses markdown for formatting.

  1. You can go practice markdown at http://markable.in. Type in some stuff and see how it gets formatted.
  2. https://dillinger.io/ also has markdown with a preview window.
  3. https://stackedit.io/app# also has markdown with formatting toolbars. So format your text and you see the format codes in the left pane.
