I agree. I am not trying to make daily entries anymore even if no work was done, as I want to make my posting be more beneficial to others on the path, whether my efforts in the posts are successful or not, it could be Im missing a technique detail or a blind, and others would find that and succeed, making my failures a success.
So, there are certain posts Ive made recent notes in, and they're six moths backlogged, so not sure when the auto merging on other older posts update.

Finally got around to implementing this. The text on unread threads should now be:
  • brighter
  • have a slight shadow for added contrast
  • have a "new" tag next to them
I am open to feedback and thoughts on this. Is it still not enough? Is it now too much?

Also please report any bugs if you notice them (especially if you see the "new" tag popping up in places it shouldn't be).

The biggest thing to make unread threads stand out better in the past for me was either replying to a thread with a decent reply, not just a "bump", and to scan New Posts.
