one of the things that’s very hard to do is to quickly tell which posts have been made as a reply to an earlier post in the middle of a discussion, especially as the number rises over twenty. It would be a lot easier to spot and check such posts if something was done to make those posts stand out.
Now I notice the system shows the number of hours since the post was made, then the number of days once it’s over 24 hours, and then the date once it’s been up about a week. What about having the words hours and days in a stand out bright colour, say bright orange or red or something, and each as a different colour. So once a post says x days the word ‘days’ can read in say bright green, and when it’s ‘hours’ it can read in say bright read. Thus when I want to scan the list of posts for anything new in the last day or so, I need only stop to look at the posts where the green ‘days’ or red ‘hours’ shows.
