Description
Currently, seeing which rooms are unread/have notifications at a glance from the home tab isn't really possible, below an example:

The bottom two rooms show they have unread messages *only* by having a slightly bolder text, this is impossible to distinguish on first glance.
### Proposal
Make it so that unread rooms either have a ~~"unread counter" or an~~ "unread (empty round) badge", whichever is applicable, at a top-right corner of a room, similarly to wider Apple UX/UI.
Edit: I just found out the "unread counters" do indeed exist, but the "unread badge", or a better way to signal a "unread but no counter room" is what i mean here.
