| Jul 25, 2019 at 6:53 | comment | added | Gazihan Alankus | MISSING PIECE: When you are browsing questions of a tag that you are following, that tag's questions are not highlighted yellow. The yellow highlighted ones have OTHER tags that you also follow. Here I see that flutter-only tagged questions are not highlighted even if I follow flutter: stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/flutter | |

Unstable what this feature is even called: used to be called "favorite", or "interesting", now it's called "watched". Unstable where you control it: used to be able to change this set of tags from the profile, now it's on each tag page. | |

| Apr 13, 2016 at 8:19 | comment | added | Nick Cardoso | I browse only my favourite tags but still a subsection gets highlighted yellow. This seems to be when the question contains 2 out of 3 of my tags. | |
| Mar 31, 2016 at 1:14 | comment | added | ThrowBackDewd | Are we sure this is correct. I have the tag "css" added as a favorite and I've posted a question that is tagged with "css". When I navigate questions with the "css" tag, my question is white, when I navigate to "html" where my question also shows up, it's yellow. | |

| Jan 8, 2014 at 14:01 | comment | added | Trevor Sullivan | Non-intuitive. Just searched Google to find an answer to this question. | |
| Sep 6, 2012 at 19:08 | comment | added | Miguel-F | I too had to come here and find out why some of the questions were highlighted. Now it makes sense. | |
| Mar 12, 2012 at 17:46 | comment | added | octern | I also came to meta today just to find out about the yellow background (and imported my account just to leave this comment). At first I assumed that they were newer questions or questions with less satisfactory answers. | |
| Jun 2, 2011 at 16:21 | comment | added | Bear. Teddy Bear. | Non-intuitive for me also. | |
| May 17, 2011 at 8:31 | comment | added | Taryn East | totally non-intuitive to me. I specifically came to meta today to find out why this was happening. | |
| Jul 30, 2009 at 20:29 | comment | added | Ian Elliott | Was pretty intuitive for me =/ | |
| Jul 30, 2009 at 20:23 | comment | added | Kurt W. Leucht | Wow. That's great. Although it wasn't intuitive to me when I saw the color. I wonder if a tooltip or something is warranted here? | |
