@mjh316 pushed something that might be relevant in #3594 . Enabling longpolling sometimes fixes this issue for users with stable internet connections but firebase connection issues

@mjh316 @thecodingwizard can we add a message to https://usaco.guide/settings next to long polling that mentions this?

@bqi343 Yes, I put an initial message there as I wasn't sure what to say - do you have a specific message in mind we could use?. Also, is there a way we can hook into the connection failure and tell them to attempt long polling?

@mjh316 Add something about enabling this option only if you encounter issues connecting to Firebase.
