This is weird: I normally use "Show unread posts since last visit" to see what I missed but sometimes it resets and shows you only a few topics. No problem, because at the bottom right there is a button "All Unread Topics" which well... should show you all unread threads. This is the link: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/unread/?all;start=0 (https://www.eevblog.com/forum/unread/?all;start=0)
But: Even if you read a thread and go back to all unread it is still there, and even more strange is that most of the [New] buttons behind the title link to the first post in the thread, even though I have read everything except the last message. And why do almost all [New] buttons link to the thread but to msg 587490?
Some examples:

Even the TEA thread with close to 47000 messages shows the same msg number:
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/test-equipment-anonymous-(tea)-group-therapy-thread/msg587490/?topicseen#new (https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/test-equipment-anonymous-(tea)-group-therapy-thread/msg587490/?topicseen#new)
And that also opens the first message in the thread while I'm sure that I have read them all (...)
So, any idea what is going on here? Does it do the same for you?
TL;DR: The "All unread Topics" also shows the topics where I already read the last message and it often links to the first message in a thread which I already read and there's a strange message number. Something is broken! :-BROKE
