I haven’t seen a red flag for a post that needs moderation since this new UI was rolled out. Are they now gray?

They are definitely still red. I see one now here on Meta.

try [safe mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true). you may have a flag color override in a component.

I’ve never seen gray flags icon before. Another user reported these posts as possible spam.

Everything in that list will be grey – they always were. But you should see a red flag on your avatar as per my OP when one comes in.
