    Seems to highlight new comments, but I can’t tell how new. I think newer than (including) 10 minutes.

      Yes the cutoff is 10 minutes I recently saw a comment turn the darker shade at exactly 11 minutes old.

    New comments since you last visited I believe?

    Edit: It’s comments newer than 10 minutes on default lemmy-ui

      That’s not it, you can go to any thread and see 5 minute old comments be highlighted

    Lighter shades should be comments that have been added since you opened the thread iirc

    Would be cool if there was a way that new comments were highlighted regardless of time. Much like how Apollo does it on Reddit.

    I think the lighter comments are new comments since the last time you visited that post?
