Description

I'm looking for an alternative Reddit client coming from Flow for Reddit that seems to have been abandoned. So far I like RedReader best. A feature of Flow that I've come to rely upon is that it displays new comments distinctly from previously read comments. Making a lot easier to read new comments while maintaining their order among other comments. (compared to having to use the new ranking that displays them all at the top)

Aparently this is on the ToDo list for RedReader as Darken Read Comments. As the ToDo list is fairly old I was wondering if this feature is still a candidate for implementation?
