Messages are kept unread

What's up? When I go to my inbox, the messages are kept as unread. The mail icon still shows unread messages count. I have to click on every single one of them to make it mark as read.

Where does it happen? Inbox

Screenshots or mock-ups ???

What browser extensions are installed? ???

here is a script if anyone is interested:

fetch("https://www.reddit.com/api/read_all_messages.json", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "X-Modhash": r.config.modhash,
    "Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
  },
  credentials: "include"
}).then(res => {
  if (res.ok) {
    console.log("Success! Refreshing page to update header badge...");
    window.location.reload();
  } else {
    console.error("Failed with status:", res.status);
  }
});
