Learn how to use the native Also Viewing feature on WordPress.org
This is a userscript, used with TamperMonkey or GreaseMonkey, used to avoid overlapping replies on WordPress.org.
The script provides a small bar, showing you what other script uers are viewing (or typing) in a given topic.
This is done to avoid overlapping replies, which can be confusing to end users, and in some cases come off as noisy or spammy.
You can also visit the /dist/alsoviewing.user.js
and click the Raw button. TamperMonkey or GreaseMonkey will take over from there.
