Disabling gateway redirection if IPFS is non functional would be nice feature.

Local gateway redirection could be disabled if:

  • ipfs.io responses to /version (we have connection with alternative) and
  • local gateway has no peers in swarm

I think we could do it both ways and have an "Automatic Mode":
A checkbox on the Preferences screen would enable polling of /api/v0/swarm/peers periodically (perhaps interval could be customized too) and if list of peers is >0 then we automatically enable redirect to custom gateway. If response is negative, then redirect is disabled.
