+TODO: GHOST BACKEND for socket server... the main thing is syncing duration
+      data. It sucks to have the player, like, actually be tied to a specific

+TODO: There should be a way for the server to handle disputes between two
+      clients disagreeing on the duration of a track. Options could include,
+      for example, "longest": always wait for everyone to be done playing;

+      or whatever), just skip to the next track almost right away; and "first",
+      where duration just depends on whoever shared the track. This can all be
+      done without everyone sharing their own playback duration, which is kinda
