Better Forums UI - UserScript

I have made an UserScript that brings some useful things to the forums. Main feature is that it improves navigation by highlighting your own posts and replies to those posts. I found this to be very useful when scrolling the forum.

Here are some examples of how it looks. Both light and dark themes included.

I am aware of the bug that interferes with deleting posts. I’ll fix it as soon as I get some more free time.
