Recently Read is incorrect

#DC Feedback

I clicked on my name to view my profile.  It shows a list of recently read posts.  This list is incorrect.   It seems to be listing all the posts on the homepage as post I have read.  I have not read the majority of these posts. 

Perhaps the recently read logic is broken?  I assume recently read would require me to actually view the posting to consider it read?

Can you correct (or remove) this information in the profiles

Looking at my own profile, I also see this list showing some posts that I have not read. It isn't always the same as the list of posts on the homepage, either. I tried viewing different pages and then reloading my profile, and it seems that after viewing a page with a list of posts (e.g. one of the pages under "Browse by Tag" in the sidebar), posts from that page often show up in my Recently Read list, whether or not I click on them - but not every post, nor every time I reload a page of that sort.

I don't know if you were concerned about your profile showing inaccurate information to other users, or just pointing out that this feature doesn't seem to be behaving as expected - if it's the former, though, it does not appear that any list of recently read posts is shown when viewing a user profile other than your own.
