I went a bit farther and used the built in variable to set color, as well as setting the font weight down to match the "n hours ago" text, and changing " - " to "@" so that the uesrname matched the standard fediverse string that you can put into search boxes

I'll publish this properly as soon as greasyfork sends me an email to authenticate my new account, but in the meantime here's the source. EDIT: Email has yet to arrive 13 hours later, I doubt it's going to. Anyone interested feel free to publish this somewhere it's easier for people to install.
