[OTHER] Client-side reconnection to websockets

[stemount]

What would you like to share?

As per sharing on Discord, scaling websockets across services requires a lot more work and deployments or any hiccup in network will prevent reconnection.

This would be a good idea regardless of having a "fix" for this problem to reconnect after a 500ms delay to the Live API websocket.

• [] Getting rid of the old poller method for good
• [] Reconnecting after 500ms for any service blips due to deployment
