Just saying -- storing the salt alongside the hash is very common. It's used just about everywhere (/etc/shadow, bcrypt in general…).
The alternative is: how are you to be able to log in? If the salt isn't stored, then the hash becomes useless. If it is stored, but is constant across the database; then what point does the salt have? It would be a problem were it sha1 or similar, but it isn't.
Other than that… argon2 is quite strong so far at least.
