Answers.Text: It seems there is no “real” answer to my question and workarounds like this are my best bet. I currently just remove the item from the collection after reading (which takes some annoying seconds), and use the feature to remove old items from device to free up storage. Kindle is terrible for powerusers. I don’t think I’ll buy from Amazon for my next ereader. $300 and I get an ad-ridden, locked down, dumb, good-for-nothing OS. Shame on Amazon.

  In current versions of the Kindle software, when you reach the end of a book or article, it's marked as "READ" in the user interface.
  
  In the `⋮` menu to the right of each item, there's also a "Mark As Read" menu item. You can use this to manually mark items as read.
  
  If the item is already marked as read, the menu item becomes "Mark As Unread".
