Read marker disappears very rapidly.
Steps to reproduce
- Open a room you haven't read recently
- See the
---- New messages -----RM the timeline - It vanishes about 500ms later, before you even have a chance to read or register it.
Outcome
What did you expect?
RM should hang around until the next time the room is opened (after which it will have moved to a new position), or possibly fade out after N seconds. I forget how EW does it these days. In the original implementation it faded away, but in retrospect i'm not sure there's a point in it fading away.
What happened instead?
Disappears almost instantly with a pop, which feels buggy. (Presumably it /is/ a bug, given some of the time it hangs around indefinitely - e.g. https://github.com/element-hq/element-x-ios/issues/2660)

looks like the behaviour on EW is to also disappear abruptly with a pop after ~1s now.
edit: actually, the problem in EW is that 'ghost readmarkers' (i.e. the lingering 400ms animation after the RM starts to disappear) has broken. They actually disappear after 3s, by default, in theory, but without the animation it feels much shorter. This is https://github.com/element-hq/element-web/issues/27309
It should be now fixed on the Rust side. Do you still see the issue?
