split settings per account(?) multiple accounts need to be supported redux -> mobx migration (wipe existing redux data post-migration) > look into talking with other tabs to detect multiple instances > (also use this to tell the user to close all tabs before updating) write new settings data structures for server-side ---- (deprecate existing API and replace with new endpoints?) alternatively: keep using current system and eventually migrate or: handle both incoming types of data and keep newer version (v1_prefix) need to document these data structures provide state globally? perform all authentication from inside mobx mobx parent holds client information and prepares us for first render reasoning for global: - we can't and won't have more than one of the application running in a single tab - interactions become simpler - all accounts will be managed from one place anyways things such as unreads can pass through this data store providing a host of information, such as whether there are any alerts on channels, etc
