QuinnyCoded is the OP of this thread. I’m guessing your client indicates this with the white box.
The person QuinnyCoded replied to (aeharding) is probably a mod (I’m guessing?), making their name show up blue in their client.
Update: I figured out that @[email protected] is the dev for Voyager, the lemmy client modeled after the Reddit app “Apollo”. So their name shows up kind of purple/blue in the Voyager app (which is my preferred client as well!).
I think what you’re seeing is that the OP of the post is rendered differently from everyone else. But what OP is referring to is how that one specific user that they replied to has his username in purple, instead of the white everyone else has.
Well I know what the white box is on my app but I was wondering why he was asking about blue. Other commenter said it happened to be the dev of that app
What does that mean? I use jerboa and everyone is white except you. You’re black with a white box around your name.
Edit - to clarify I know why the white box is on my app, indicating the OP.
