Look at this color scheme for organizing threads. The different colors for organizing the depths of threads is very helpful.

Do you think it makes sense for amethyst?

Looks duplicated. The design of spacing the bar on the left shouldnt need colors to represent levels and vice versa.

Disagree, Apollo uses colors and spacing both, looks good and it’s helpful!:

We agree to disagree then... Colors for different authors make a lot more sense than colors for levels of replies.

Good idea also

The original screenshot was confusing by coloring the author name with the same color as the thread level indicator, Apollo example is more clear, one or the other not both, as you say

Also note, colors in Apollo follow rainbow order, it’s clear that yellow means 3 layers deep (red>orange>yellow…) versus random colors. Your stacked gray lines need careful counting to figure out how deep a thread is

Thats very clever

Also the ability of collapsing/folding is very helpful to filter out comments which are attracting bad comments, or which are over answered

I sometimes get confused to know on which depth I am.

Maybe increasing the horizontal spacing would help?

And for very big threads I remember always: the current red bar bar has too many bad comments under it, so I'll skip to the next red.

It's indeed useful, but as I say, at least more spacing would be helpful if the thread is not too big
