Description

i don't think this thing bounces back after you close your laptop

we have a `connection.isConnected` bool. ~~the UI should make it obvious when you're disconnected~~ (https://github.com/brandly/irc/commit/b2753302fdb37ed76ef2eaa2d4311ef2e400aad2) and render a reconnect btn somewhere.

Research direction

Start by locating connection.isConnected and the existing UI for connection status, then trace how network loss is handled after the laptop or client disconnects. Done means the client recovers from disconnection and provides a visible reconnect button; verify the behavior by reproducing a disconnect in the Electron app.
