Noticed that things look weird when the badge becomes wide (in 99+ scenario):

Looks like there's some mismatch in the radii or something.

Also, we should definitely make call to useSelector more precise to avoid unnecessarily re-rendering this component.

The useSelector here is pretty un-optimal.

This component (and children) will re-render anytime anything changes in any threadInfos in the threadStore.

We should instead create a selector function that more precisely calculates things and consume it like:

const unreadCountValue = useSelector(state => 
  computeUnreadCount(state.threadStore.threadInfos, threadID)
);

Implementation of computeUnreadCount (generated with ChatGPT) could look like:

const computeUnreadCount = (threadInfos, threadID) => {
  return Object.values(threadInfos).filter(
    communityInfo =>
      threadInHomeChatList(communityInfo) &&
      communityInfo.currentUser.unread &&
      (threadID === communityInfo.community || threadID === communityInfo.id)
  ).length;
};
