Status changed from Fixed to Awaiting confirmation
This was closed in a bulk cleanup before Fluxer V2 without being checked or fixed. It may work now, so it is waiting for someone to confirm whether the bug still happens.

Can you try this fix from the common issues section in Fluxer HQ?
Problem: I have a stuck mention or unread indicator. There are some known issues with mentions and unread indicators getting stuck in certain circumstances. We're working on finding a reliable way to reproduce the bug. In the meantime, you can resolve this by marking a message in the chat as unread, then marking the chat as read again. On desktop, you can do this quickly by Alt-clicking a message and then pressing Escape. Other times, simply reloading the client will fix it.
