It was changed yesterday:
To alleviate the "everything's orange" problem, if one of your interesting/frequented/ignored tags is in the list of tags on a
/questions/tagged/{tags}
page highlighting for that tag will be disabled.
For instance, if your interesting tags are
java
andandroid
, going to Questions Tagged java will cause onlyandroid
tagged questions to be highlighted.
This code will go out with our next build.
