That looks like screenshot from any user to me. The highlighting is the same as me taking a screenshot of a comment where I @ someone else. It also looks the same when I see someone else’s comment @ someone else.
Edit: thank you all for down voting me for admitting that I didn’t notice the difference in the background and replied thinking they might be referring to the name highlighting. Clearly I must have been disagreeing with the comment I replied to and not just trying to learn something!
I don’t worry about it, just bugs me when people get downvoted for being unaware of something and admitting to it. “Here’s why I don’t understand” tends to be inferred to mean disagreement.
dont worry about downvotes, everybody will at some point be downvoted, valid reason or not. I know it feels bad, but everyone makes mistakes and it’s totally normal to be wrong sometimes ❤️
Lemmy doesn’t have karma for a reason :)
PS, it might be best etiquette to strike out your text like this so people understand that what you were saying was incorrect (2 of the ~ symbol on either side)
I’ve seen your other comments, and it seems like you’re sour over getting downvoted because you weren’t able to notice a subtle difference that’s not easily obvious.
Personally, I like to be strict with the downvote button. It’s just something I picked up (and miss) from old Reddit: there used to be a strict culture on the site, which would lead to a high influx of relevant quality content.
In contrast, I saw a post on !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world yesterday about the theistic breakdown of the American demographic. It was a cool graph, but not a shitpost; yet it had still gained more upvotes than downvotes.
Ultimately, I don’t think you should worry about it, as these votes matter even less on Lemmy than they do on Reddit.

No, I am sour because people can’t fucking read and insert what they think I’m saying instead of responding to what I wrote.
I didn’t feel the need to say it because @wander1236@sh.itjust.works had already written a reply explaining it. All I could have done was paraphrase their explanation and create unnecessary cruft.
They are right that the hive mind is stupid for down voting a post that states they don’t see what the other person sees. I still can’t even tell the screenshot in the post has a yellow tint, but take others words for being able to tell the difference.
The highlighting is really hard to see without a contrast from the regular background color, and to be honest I never noticed the bright yellow stripe down the side.
Whoever took this screenshot is the user with that Discord name

The message in the OP has a yellow tint to the background along with a yellow line on the left.
Thank you!
I upvoted, but don’t worry about karma on this site. It doesn’t mean anything here, most people & apps don’t care about some form of “total karma”.
All things considered it also didn’t mean anything on Reddit, but people get a bit egotistical on there.

I believe the yellow background highlight is the difference

Not sure why you’re being downvoted. Unless I’m missing something it’s just stupid Lemmy hive mind
Because they’re incorrect. The original message has a yellow tint in the background, which is only present for accounts that get mentioned.
I said:
Apparently I’m wrong about what something looks like to me.

You could have kept your pie hole shut when you saw that there was a response that clarified what I wasn’t seeing.
Try to make sure you’re in the right before calling other people stupid.

Guys, fellas, dudes, and I mean that in an explicitly gendered way:
Shut up you’re all dumb, everyone is except for me.
Thank you. I still don’t see the difference, but at least someone explained it after my comment

Since you can set temporary, server-only nicknames, you don’t even need to edit the page source or Photoshop to stage that
