So when scrolling my feed I can see the total comments and total new comments, for example 27 +19 (where the +19 is in green). Would it be possible to have those 19 new comments “marked” in some way so I can quickly scroll and identify them? Wouldn’t have to be flashy, maybe even just a green dot or something next to the commenter’s username, or some sort of different binding/italicizing to highlight it?
TIA!
If there was a
readAtdate for the post, we’d be able to highlight comments created since that date. I don’t think tracking areadAtdate is much different from tracking areadboolean, which you’re already doing. It could always be made opt-out, if people are concerned about it. Having the date that someone read a post isn’t as exploitable as the link click tracking you mention, I don’t think.
