Dismiss Posts doesn't update Unread counter, even after full refresh
-
No idea how they fucked this one up.
Have a few unread posts.
Click the Unread tab.
Click "Dismiss Posts" (the Unread tab reads zero)
Click back to Latest (the Unread tab reads whatever was unread before you clicked Dismiss)
Do a full browser refresh (the Unread tab still reads whatever was unread before you clicked Dismiss)

Can repro.
@Sam recently made it so that when you click Unread it updates it to the correct value rather than whatever other cached value it seems to invent - I'm surprised it some how restores the other value after clicking Latest.
Why does Dismiss Posts not recent the counter to zero as part of that action like any normal person would expect it to?!
Oh, yeah, it's Discourse. They've got some features to get ready for $CURRENT_VERSION+1 rather than bothering to fix obvious bugs.

This has actually gotten fucking worse. Now not only is the blue unread count at the top nav non-updated, but I still have blue circles in a bunch of the threads that were (in theory) marked as read.
FUCK THIS BROKEN PIECE OF SHIT FORUM. HOW DO YOU EVEN FUCKING MAKE SOMETHING THIS FUCKING BROKEN. DID THEY HAVE TO HIRE CONSULTANTS.
