Settings backup for each account? (piefed.social)

Moving to a new phone.

I see an option to back up accounts database, and I see an option to back up settings.

Does Thunder apply distinct settings for each account? If so, do I have to switch to each account and back up those settings I order to restore functionality for each?

As far as I can tell, you're settings are your settings, not per-account, and the database backup contains all of your accounts. You need both backups: settings and db.

Edit: I just verified that settings are for the app, not per account.

Thank you. I backed up both and I'm back up and running!
