Problem: when I perform this sequence of events the AlertDialog disappears:
- Touch the add icon at the top right
- background/foreground app with "Don't Keep Activities" option enabled
Possible solution:
app/src/main/java/me/ash/reader/ui/page/home/feeds/subscribe/SubscribeViewModel.kt:38 move state holder from ViewModel to the Composable using rememberSaveable

Start with app/src/main/java/me/ash/reader/ui/page/home/feeds/subscribe/SubscribeViewModel.kt at line 38 and review the linked Android guidance on saving UI state. Reproduce the flow with “Don’t Keep Activities” enabled, then investigate the suggested state-holder change. Done means the AlertDialog remains visible after system-initiated process death and the relevant behavior is verified.
