Comment (by karsten):

 So, improving the text as you suggest is a fine first step.

 But what Atlas should also do is distinguish what error code it gets back
 from Onionoo and display an appropriate error message.  See #8667.

 A related issue is whether Atlas can somehow become better at deciding how
 old the returned data is and handle outdated data by itself.  Let me
 explain: when Onionoo learns that its data is more than 6 hours old it
 returns an internal server error.  What I'd want to do is remove that
 check and just give out whatever data Onionoo has, together with a
 timestamp.  The client could then decide when to warn the user and when to
 refrain from displaying old data.  Any chance we can do something like
 this?  Happy to create a ticket for this, but it seemed related here,
 which is why I went slightly off-topic.
