Description Robert Wloch 2013-02-21 12:17:58 UTC 
When following many others and choqok shows the main timeline tweets I read get a darker background color. Unread tweets have all the same background color regardless they mention me. I could switch to the replies time line to see those. But I think it might be a nice feature to give such tweets a different background color.

Maybe it's possible to assign different background colors to different twitter users, e.g. green for myself, blue for @TheBlueMint etc. That would rock.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. look at the main time line when it contains tweets where you are mentionend via @...
Actual Results:  
Tweets gets same background color as other (un)read tweets.

Expected Results:  
I'd like to see tweets with specific mentions (@<my_twitter_name>, or @<any_other_twitter_name>) with a different, preferably configurable, background color to quickly spot them. 

Choqok rocks!

Choqok is unfortunately no longer maintained.

If a new maintainer wants to step up and take care, the project is archived here:

https://invent.kde.org/network/choqok

You can just clone it in your private namespace on invent.kde.org and if you have started to work on it and fixed/implemented something get it reviewed and the project unarchived.

Sorry for the inconveniences.
