Page title shows a (1) unread count with no visible unread channel or DM

(#717) Bug Needs triage notifications

Summary

When I open either regular (.deb install) or canary (web) Fluxer, the application title/webpage title beings with a (1), indicating I have a message in some channel. None of my servers nor direct messages have any indication that there is a (1) next to their name. I would have expected this only to appear if I had been mentioned in some channel. I have pressed "Mark as Read" on every channel.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Go to https://web.canary.fluxer.app/.
  2. Log in as gapriel#1312.
  3. Press "Mark as Read" on every channel.
  4. Observe web page title.

Environment

Ok, I think I figured out what created this. I had a DM from a person I had never DM'd to before and for whatever reason it did not render a ping next to their name. I cannot be confident their icon even appeared in my DM list. I did not hit "Mark as Read" on all DMs, should've included that as part of the test. Feel free to comment if you read this and can provide more information.
