Description
🎯The objective
The primary objective is to refactor the codebase by replacing all direct usages of the K9 class with appropriate implementations of PreferenceDataStore or the new ConfigStore if it's feature specific configuration.
This change aims to modernize the application's preference management system, ensuring better maintainability and alignment with contemporary Android development practices. Additionally, this migration is a step towards implementing a unidirectional data flow architecture, promoting clearer state management and more predictable behavior throughout the app.
