Cannot mark replies in my inbox as "read"

Whenever someone replies to one of my (witty, always genius) comments their comment stays "unread" in the notifications/inbix tab, with a red dot on the bell in the bottom left of the main UI.

I think they only get marked as read if someone else replies to them or if I go into lemmy in my browser to Mark As Read.

Does pressing the envelope at the top right not mark as read?
- Thanks, now I feel dumb… but seriously, thank you!

  Don't. It's far from being intuitive.
- That's it. Thanks!
You have to reply to them, mark as read by long swiping from right to left, or clicking the envelope in top right.
Personally I would like at least the red dot to go away when I press it. Messages can remain unread until I take action.
