Q&A Notification dropdown doesn't consistently change items from "unread" to "read"

This is (newly) happening for me today, using Firefox 93.0 on Windows 10. I haven't been using Codidact a lot on this machine lately, but I have used it in recent weeks without seeing this problem...

  • This is (newly) happening for me today, using Firefox 93.0 on Windows 10. I haven't been using Codidact a lot on this machine lately, but I have used it in recent weeks without seeing this problem. A few days ago I updated Firefox to try to reproduce a different bug. I do not know if these facts are related.
  • I don't have a lot of extensions in this browser, but I disabled them one at a time and retested between, with no apparent change in behavior. (Tampermonkey, Stylus, AdBlock Plus, NoScript (all scripts Codidact uses are whitelisted), Tab Session Manager.)
  • I currently have one "unread" notification that I've read several times (same tab, and then navigating away as normal). I'll see what happens when I get back to the computer I normally use.

  • **Update:** In Chrome 95.0.4638.54 on MacOS 11.6 (Big Sur), I clicked on a notification (current community, not current page) and when that page loaded the notification was cleared.
