Forum bug: "Reply" on nested citations leads to corruption of nested `> ` marks.

Ahoj,

I think I discovered an issue with (the web based version at least) the forum:

When I hit "Reply" on a post which already has citations, the second-level > get replaced by &gt, and third level > get replaced by > -- and > definitely will be mis-rendered.

See for example in this thread the message from @dreieck from 2026-05-28, which was generated by hitting the "Reply" button on the message above and filling my content there.

Precisely:

Message I want to cite:

so I have a lab setup of nodeA and nodeB and "T" transport node. both A&B are connected to RNS and can communicate with each other. when I introduce T and the links are not symmetrical eg. A->T->B and the return path is B->A messages stall. If the return path is the same as the forward path it works. I read the logic where Mark mentions the announce as a indicator of the best path and load balancing, but It seems something is not working for me. so if A and B are totally isolated and T is in the middle everything works.

When I hit the reply on that message, I get:
