KNode also uses scores, and a threshold below which posts are no longer 
shown.  However, the action of marking them as read is separate.  One 
can also mark posts as read without that they are actually hidden from 
view.

One of the big downsides of KNode however is that it has loads of 
undocumented scoring features.  I wish someone would write the 
documentation for those.
