// his reduces the gap size similar to how it was before.

// When a channel has activity (new messages), Discord makes the name of that channel bold and white, which is fine.
// But Discord also does that for the selected channel, which makes it look like it has new activity, when maybe it doesn't.
// I can't stand that behaviour, so I disable it.
