similar to the kbin userscript I made this colorizes posts and comments by origin. kbin users/posts are dark blue, Beehaw (and any other restrictive moderation sites in the future) are red, local is left unchanged.

I will mention, anyone that is using the light theme will have this broken. From what I have seen most people seem to be using the dark theme anyways so it's not that big of a deal but it is worth mentioning.

Thank you for the great userscript! It is quite nice to have a colour coded view of this.

pretty nice!

I wonder about these types of scripts and plugins promoting an in-group/out-group mentality, but I suppose we shall see.

I feel like the inclusion of highlighting users from heavily moderated instances could create that mentality, but I think it is quite valuable to have a colour coded view of who is using kbin and who is using lemmy. It's just somewhat interesting seeing which communities people from different federated platforms are interacting with.

As a user on a defederated instance, for me it's a reminder that even if I see one of their comments or posts on a non-beehaw instance, there's no point in replying because they'll never see it anyway.

I DIDN'T THINK OF THAT, that is actually quite a useful piece of information thank you for mentioning that. As I am also on a defederated instance (rip sh.it.heads) this will be useful.
