Is there an option to mark a post as read from up/down vote?

Appreciate it.

I did see that, just not an option to mark it as read from voting.

I guess I'll just have to get used to doing it another way. I'm used to up/down voting as I scroll through to mark them as read.

I didn't want to select the option to mark read on scroll in case I wanted to come back to something later.

The problem with mark-read on vote is that people downvote new posts simply because they don't personally find it interesting.

There aren't as many users on here so two downvotes might hide the new post entirely from quite a lot of users. There's no karma system or super complex algorithm but downvoting does affect the visibilty of posts

Yeah, I get that. I typically end up up voting everything.
