Why do redditors enjoy misusing the quote function?
Who are you quoting?
That's a big implication, friend.

The sideways chevron is actually used to make quotes on Reddit, so in fact using it for quotes is more Reddit-like than not

Before it was used for that, it was used for quoting people in e-mails. So yeah, it's been around as a quoting tool for decades.

Just another stupid way in which people attempt to troll. They're satisfied as long as they annoy someone, and they'll always convince themselves they annoyed someone.
One time some Anon gave me a custom CSS code to put in the native 4chan extension that made the greentext shit brown colored instead. I loved it. I changed computers and lost it though.

Dude, just use the Inspector from the Web Developer Tools from Firefox.
The original green:
element {
}
.postMessage > .quote, s:hover .quote, .str, .atv, .new, .catalog-thread > .comment > .quote {
color: #093 !important;
}
Just change #093 for another color like #756b49
