  • Is there a problem with my name being green?

    • New user. To see replies THAT fast on a new user reply which generally isn't pushed to the top of the feed, I find that very interesting.

      Not as such, no. However, new accounts (which show up as green) tend to get less attention and more downvotes. When I first joined that annoyed and confused me, but after a while (when my name was no longer green), folks seemed more accepting of my comments and submissions.

      As the eminent philosopher opined, "It Ain't Easy Being Green"[0]. Although I believe their ruminations predate HN.
