User story

As a user I want app to follow modern UX practices

Tech details

Many apps uses shimmer as a placeholder when app loads data from cache or internet. It is already added in the deputies screen, but in the rest its implementation requires consideration:

load of data is quite quick
shimmer on this pages looks dirty
even Facebook aka Meta put this library in the archive
implementation requires Meta license declaration in code
integration tests becomes more complex

Shimmer had been implemented as an experimental feature, but I am not sure it should be used everywhere as a replacement of a round spinner progress indicator. Still experimenting with it.
