Hi, thanks for the feedback and I've added highlights as an experimental setting in v163.
I'm still playing with the logic and highlight color so it might change more in the future. That information doesn't come through the API so I'm saving a timestamp of when a post is viewed and any comments newer than the timestamp are highlighted.
Awesome, thanks for letting us know ๐ฑ
Doesn't seem to be working on mine but thankyou for looking into this!
Ok more and more posts are showing the highlight now, but it's not consistent. Wonder what is happening in the background? ๐ง
I'm keeping a timestamp locally of when a post is last viewed and highlighting everything newer than that timestamp. If you use multiple apps it might not be accurate but I couldn't find a way to access this information from the API.
Yeah I'm presently transitioning to using Connect only, and browsing through stuff that also has the red counter showing in the main view.
Do you have a preferred feature request method or would you prefer I make a new post?
New post would be preferred! Then it has more visibility instead of buried in a comment chain.
What color should the highlighted comments be? Doesn't seem to be working on my end. I've toggled the option to "on" in the settings.
EDIT: Well it just worked on this comment lol. Looks great. Not sure why it isn't working on any other posts though.
