Friend updates (and more) stale indefinitely after hours
maki
When playing VRChat for several hours, sometimes even just over an hour, friends in the menu stop updating. This includes statuses, locations, and even friend requests. I regularly have to use the website to accept friend requests and need to restart my client multiple times a day to be able to join others. This may affect other types of updates as well such as groups.
I'm using Linux and a few other Linux friends report the same issue, however there are a few Windows users who also experience this. Our best guess is that the API websocket doesn't properly reconnect leaving the client in a stale state.

This happens to me on Windows as well.
