Feature request: Highlight new comments when going back to a post (lemmy.world)

submitted 1 month ago by ByteMe@lemmy.world to c/summit@lemmy.world

6 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Kinda like boost does, when there is a new comment on a post I've already seen, the comment is colored. Can you do something like that?

you are viewing a single comment's thread
view the rest of the comments

I don't believe it's technically possible on Lemmy to specifically highlight unread comments

Are you sure about this? Connect and Thunder reliably show the number of unread comments in a given thread. Is there really no way to find out which comments these are?

That's what I've been told. You can see how many new comments have been made since your last visit, but not distinguish which ones they actually are.
