I’m very much enjoying this Forum. However, is there a way to mark entire sections and/or subsections as “read”?

I don’t think so, but the feature’s been request for a few years and probably won’t happen:

> **['Mark as read' needed within categories](https://meta.discourse.org/t/mark-as-read-needed-within-categories/94743)**

> I have read the threads regarding the need for a “Mark as read” button in Discourse, and I vehemently disagree with the stance of the Discourse staff that this function signifies a “cop-out” or “giving up.” It is a convenience, enjoyed by forum...

The recommendation is to use the “Last Visited” line to help visit the topics that have been active since you last visited.

The “Latest” and “Unread” pages are also useful for tracking things.
