Question - I notice that the little nav bar dot with a number to indicate new replies or messages is now showing in dark grey rather than orange. I had a look in settings, but I can't see a way to choose the colour for that. Anyone know of a way?

Normally appears here when there's a new reply:

In case it's useful...

Hi, right now ultra users can either add a new user tag or remove it. Can you please make it editable too? @[email protected]

I wish this Sync had the "sort communities list by times visited" option like Sync for Reddit

Not sure if this is the right place to comment, but I love the recent reordering of comment buttons so Save or Post is the first button. This addresses one of my very few negative thoughts about the UI. Tabbing multiple times to get out of the editor and then hit Enter just became tabbing once. Thank you to the Lemmy team!
