They also made a fairly subtle change to what the "new messages" status actually means. Previously, it meant you hadn't clicked on a channel yet. The status would clear as soon as the action was taken, even before the network requests to load the channel were finished. This meant you could go through and clear dozens of channels pretty quickly without reading them. Now, that status is only cleared after the client fully reloads the channel, which can take multiple seconds (yay, modern software). As someone with dozens of channels I don't read and can't organize, it's very tedious to clear them so I can focus on the channels I actually care about.
