This topic has been covered lots of times with no resolution. People suggest it would be helpful if they could easily see if the person who posted originally had come back to respond, especially on long threads. Some GNers say they see the posts highlighted in green, but most say they don't show on their device.

Today I noticed when reading a few threads on my phone that OP's responses were highlighted, but then found I wasn't logged onto GN so could only read.

I then logged in and found that OP's responses were no longer highlighted! Very strange

Works on mine - always.
But I think there's 2 versions - desk top & another. - As I found when I accidentally clicked on something a while back.

Scroll down, the last word at the bottom of this page, on mine says 'desktop' in blue so think this probably takes one to the alternative?

Op highlighted in green on my phone. My computer says I don’t exist on GN. I could sort it, but why bother.

Only the OP's first post is highlighted on my phone and my tablet, regardless of whether I put view on the mobile or the desktop site.
I haven't tried on my laptop, as I rarely switch that on these days!

... though one device is highlighting it in green, and the other in pink!

Just did a bit of checking on laptop and iPad as well as phone. If on mobile site, and logged out , OP’s responses are highlighted in green. However, once I log in, the highlighting disappears. On desktop site, no highlighting whether logged in or out.
