New-ish Lemmy user here (a couple weeks), I've noticed some comments under posts are 'lighter' than other comments. What causes this?

I didn't follow any links.

Update: the limit seems to be 4 hours for comments, not 10 minutes.

Thanks for the update, where did you find the 4 hours documented?

[-] dabster291@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 year ago

I didn't, I just noticed that 3 hour-old comments were highlighted, while 4 hour-old comments weren't (but I just saw a highlighted 4 hour-old comment and an unhighlighted 3 hour-old comment, so it might be something else).
