[Blazor .NET 9] The new reconnection system

[tossnet]

I'm very excited about the new reconnection system.

However, I have customers who complain, and I understand. I've made this little montage to explain the inconvenience they're experiencing with my .NET 8 (right) and .NET 9 (left) versions.

During the 13th second of the video, I slowed down the video to show the behavior between .NET9 and .NET 8 when you return to the application :

newreconnection.mp4

The problem is that as soon as you return to the application tab, Blazor reconnects, whereas before this was not the case, as you can see in the video.

I've tried customizing the reconnection with a script and starting Blazor manually ( autostart=“false” ... ) but I can't get it to work.

Mind you, I like the principle of using an exponential backoff algorithm, but you have to understand that customers don't care about our technical problems. And for them, this refresh is a step backwards, even though I announced a brilliant system at the time of my update ^^.

What do you think? Maybe you could have made a more interesting script?
