With the amount of equipment both sides are using that are the exact same (save for a swipe of IR paint) I can't imagine how much blue-on-blue incidents are happening right now

The 2014 conflict had one side tie yellow scraps of cloth around their arms to make them somewhat distinguishable.

I'm seeing Ukrainians using yellow/green tapes while Russians are using white/red. Russians are also painting 'Z', 'V' and 'O' on their vehicles. Z being from Russia and V from Belarus.

I was wondering what the Z meant and after searching other people would too, and there were multiple theories. One of it was that Z stood for the main target - Zelenskyy. But that was just as likely as the other theories, but now that you said there are also V and O do it is for his full name: Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelenskyy then that's def it.
