Remove the grey dot before closed topics
Note: I think this is a duplicate, but I didn't manage to find anything. Can someone help in finding the link (if it exists)?
When you haven't seen a topic or a post in that topic, that topic name becomes in bold, and a blue dot appears before it. Then, once you view it, its font becomes normal and the dot disappears. The problem is, when a topic is closed, its font is grey, but there's a permanent grey dot before the name. Sometimes, when it happens that I'm scrolling fast through all topics, I see that dot and I click the topic, then I understand that topic was closed. I haven't got any visual problems, but I don't always manage to find the difference between an unseen closed topic and a seen closed topic.
So, my suggestion is: the grey dot before the closed topic stays there until you view the topic. It's kinda useless to have it even when you've already seen the topic.

Support, as you said, there is no point of the dot being there if you already viewed the topic, this would help knowing if you checked it out or not.

Support, even though unviewed closed topics are in bold(just like unviewed open topics), the grey dot should disappear when the topic has been already viewed(just like how the blue dot in an unviewed open topic disappears).

It is a duplicate, I'm pretty sure I suggested this at some point
I'll be back hopefully with a link!
EDIT: Maybe not a duplicate after all?
EDIT: Found said question. I think I was thinking of something else

I see. Then, I think this topic should stay open since the topics you found aren't really a suggestion, but more of a question, but I'm not 100% sure. It is a duplicate, I'm pretty sure I suggested this at some point

No it isn't, and I can't find any duplicates so you're probably fine (:I see. Then, I think this topic should stay open since the topics you found aren't really a suggestion, but more of a question, but I'm not 100% sure. It is a duplicate, I'm pretty sure I suggested this at some point
