Mobile history shows red-sad faces to logged-out viewers but grey-happy to logged-in
MediaWiki has an extension called MobileFrontend and a skin called Minerva-Neue. You can see them in action when you go to (for example) https://m.mediawiki.org/ instead of https://www.mediawiki.org/ (note the "m" instead of "www" in the URL).
For the diffs on the Special:MobileDiff
special page, the icons vary based on the actor's name being a registered username or an unregistered IP address. And this is the same, regardless of whether the reading user of this information is logged-in or not.
However, on the history page, a logged-out user sees all actors with the red icon. And a logged-in viewer sees all actors with a grey/happy icon.
