**As** a user of OpenProject
**I want to** not(!) see a red error message with a cryptic text every time a XHR (AKA AJAX) request fails, such as checking for new notifications etc. Instead I want to a separate indicator for a "Offline" or "Bad connection" warning.
**so that** I don't get bothered by cryptic messages that I cannot understand and not act upon. I can understand network connection problems. I can act, e.g. by switching to a different network.
**Acceptance criteria**
* Failed XHR requests with error codes for timeouts or other network related errors do not pop up in red error messages (flash/toast)
* Instead the are indicated elsewhere where they do not look as terrifying.
**Figma and visuals**
