I'm attempting to use molecule for a CMP app. For the view model, I'm basing it off MoleculeViewModel in the sample-viewmodel package.

Given that androidx.compose.ui.platform.AndroidUiDispatcher.Main only exists in androidMain, what should I use instead?

abstract class MoleculeViewModel<Event, Model> : ViewModel() {
    private val scope = CoroutineScope(
        viewModelScope.coroutineContext + AndroidUiDispatcher.Main <<<<<< Reference not available in commonMain or iosMain
    )

    // ...
}

P.S. I'm new to molecule and the sample-viewmodel package has been a helpful starting point. However, I'm open to other approaches.

In order to use a different dispatcher, I've created an expect MoleculeViewModel and then actual MoleculeViewModel for iosMain and androidMain.

However, it would great if there was a dispatcher I could use for both so I can reduce the duplication and just have a single MoleculeViewModel in commonMain.
