Description

When you are trying to change your nickname in the ingame browser, it keeps firing this effect: https://github.com/openmultiplayer/launcher/blob/master/src/containers/JoinServerPrompt/index.tsx#L70
This will result in reverting your changes and forcing the nickname in the settings as new value.

Research direction

Start in src/containers/JoinServerPrompt/index.tsx around line 70, where the reported effect is fired. Reproduce the issue by editing the nickname in the ingame browser and observe whether the change is reverted. Done means editing the nickname no longer forces a re-render that replaces the in-progress value.
