[Suggestion] Differentiate anonymous users within a post

Closed this issue · 3 comments

I have recently been arguing with a TA about some grading issues. Some other students also jumped in. However, everyone's name is "anonymous" so it is hard to tell who is who

It would be nice to have something like what Piazza has, where everyone is assigned a unique string. Note the use of numbers if more people have commented anonymously than strings are available:

I've also been thinking about this recently. Might I suggest different colors of "Anonymous" for different people and maybe an "OP" tag next to original posters name, if posting anonymously?

I think colors would be easier to process visually vs different names.

Thanks for implementing this! I’ll go ahead and close this issue

There is room for a bit more refinement but this should be an improvement over prior art.
