My guess would be that you are one of the few users who has clicked on practically everything in the best of?
For most random users I sampled during testing there is a very clear and identifiable pattern for read-statuses that users understood reliably, but it becomes less obvious as the percentage you’ve read goes above 80% or so (and indeed I cannot test on my own account for I have read all posts and so am seeing a pretty outlierish UI state).
I guess this isn’t terribly important information to communicate in this particular context, anyway…
I do actually think in user testing, seeing people fill the urge to “fill out the picture” by reading a lot of the content, or at least checking it out, seemed like something that brought people a bunch of joy.

Ah, yeah, that makes sense. (I guess this isn’t terribly important information to communicate in this particular context, anyway…)
