Show Alerts Read Bubble permanently

[staticV3]

On Mobile, the Alerts page displays a Read bubble next to each alert permanently, so that you can see at a glance which alerts you've already read:


Very handy.

Not so on Desktop, where this bubble only appears when you hover over the respective alert:

This means you cannot check read status at a glance, making it plain worse to use.

Please, if at all possible, make the bubble in ASR Desktop version be visible permanently, just like it is on Mobile.

I am alarmed by the inconsistency of these alerts!

I see that the behaviour is the same with the Alert drop down menu (bell icon) and that the choice of forum theme does not make a difference.

In the default theme, unread alerts do have a different background color. Doesn't seem to be the case in your dark theme. It would make sense to have the dots always visible, though.

Well spotted, it's the same in the blue theme, so it's just the dark that doesn't highlight unread.
