Why does the slack client not show connection issues instead of just hard locking up?

  The client on my Mac showed a page that said it was having issues connecting with a link to their status page.

    The Windows desktop app is less fortunate.

  When it went down fully and I had the Windows client open, it went to a page that basically said "Slack is down, we don't know why, try restarting and see if that fixes it. Here's the status page." It would be nice if they could fix it so that a fresh start also goes to that page, at the very least.

    How do you have the Slack app installed? I currently have it installed via the Windows/Microsoft Store, and I suspect that is a significant part of the problem.
