Cache (some) insults for when device is offline #46

⚠️ Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

When between network connections (offline) no insults are available for vanquishing my arch-enemies. This causes unacceptable reputation damage.

💡 Describe the solution you'd like

The app to cache at least some insults, in order to be able to display them regardless of network connectivity.

Ideally, make the behaviour configurable:

  • option to update only via unmetered connections (e.g. 802.11, not mobile data)
  • since the insults are text strings, a configurable count of insults to cache
  • perhaps a mode to cache all insults, for fully-offline operation, performing occasional updates (in background)

📊 Describe alternatives you've considered

  • Saving insults locally, but that defeats the entire purpose of the app
  • trying to ensure I have network access whenever I might need an insult, but this is not always possible

📄 Additional context

None that I can think of.

🙋 Do you want to develop this feature yourself?

  • Want to? Sure, but I'd have years of learning to do. So; able to? Not for the foreseeable future ☹.
