Mark new coments from last visit? (feddit.it)

It's something I'm missing in all the apps I've tried so far, but it would be cool to be able to quickly see the new coments since last visit on a post.

I guess using different background would be enough and maybe provide a way to navigate between them.

This was added in #281 but the code is disabled due to the API we are using missing the ability to mark comments on a post as read. Or at least, we've not found how to do it.

Lemmy does not track which comments on a post are new, only how many there are. The Lemmy webUI is just highlighting any comments that have been made in the last 10 minutes.

I think cache the list of comments (if there's at least an unique identifier to use as reference) on viewed posts and compare to a new request could be a solution, but I don't know how the api works, so all this is assumptions on how I would handle this problem.. I think you would find a solution to this soon!
