I'm working on fixing tests. Otherwise this is ready.

  • Maybe we should also be unselecting the chats when marking them as unread

Is it intended that there are no conditions at all wether or not a chat can be marked as unread? Even empty chats and selfChat ?The latter does not even show a fresh message counter that would make the change visible.

btw. Mute notifications also doesn't make sense on selfChat but that's another issue

Even empty chats

Good point, but why not. E.g. you might want to create a group and set a "reminder" for yourself to write a message there later.

and selfChat ?The latter does not even show a fresh message counter

Ah I see. It only works if you have a "saved message" from someone else in your self chat.
It's a Core issue I would say.
In Telegram it is possible to mark "saved messages" as unread.

Mute notifications also doesn't make sense on selfChat but that's another issue

A use case for muting "saved messages" would be to combine it with "mark as unread" and then mute for some time. You'll have a "one new message" badge when the mute ends.
FYI Telegram doesn't have "mute" on "Saved messages".
