i cannot use `ktor-client-cio` righ now anyway because i use 1.3-M2, but i plan to.. so i have some questions
can it open a connection and keep it open for data to come in? the api sends data whenever a chatmessage happens on the bridge.. and almost all other more advanced  http clients autoclose connections for me and it is a lot more work than to just implement it in java stdlib (ugly but works)
thats not gonna work going forward since i plan to try to minimize jvm specific dependencies though
