Opening app offline causes crash

[erlend-sh]

I just tried to start up the launcher while my wifi was off. Instead of some kind of "can't connect to internet" notification, the app just crashes.

Easiest solution here is the aforementioned no-connection notice. In the future we could consider making the app work offline, i.e. it'll still give you access to whatever you've already downloaded even if you're offline.

Yeah, huge 👍 for that. It drives me crazy when apps don't let me get to what I have on my own omputer when I'm offline.

Maybe we could cache the release files locally whenever we download them, and then we show like an "out-of-date" or "disconnected" warning icon with a tooltip somewhere a little bit out of the way or something if we can't download new ones when we startup.

Agree with @zicklag here. Caching + showing a notification would be nice.
