Bug Description

Ten instances of .catch(() => {}) across the client codebase silently swallow errors with no logging or user feedback:

  • LoginPage.jsx:43,49
  • SnowballPage.jsx:390
  • SubscriptionsPage.jsx:415,548
  • BankSyncSection.jsx:347
  • ImportSpreadsheetSection.jsx:888,889
  • TransactionMatchingSection.jsx:438
  • Layout.jsx:12

Failed API calls produce zero user feedback, making bugs invisible to both users and developers.

Impact

Users see silent failures with no error indication. Developers have no console output to debug.

Recommended Fix

At minimum, replace with .catch(err => console.error(context, err)) or show a toast notification for user-facing operations.
