Starting page is practically unusable

[SFort]

The starting page has been compleatly replaced by tutorial popups.
The new beta feed shows nothing of interest/relavance and i'm fairly certain most users know what they want in their feed already.

You can just remove them from the dashboard and end up with the usual landing page. And I think they're useful to have for new users.

Turning these off is very straightforward IMO. Just click on the three dots in the upper right corner of each section and hit "Remove from Dashboard" (or similar, can't remember what it said exactly).
It's a bit hidden, but not necessarily bad design.

I totally agree on the last part though. It should've been disabled by default for older accounts and maybe just show us a tiny option to enable/ navigate to the help section if required.

thanks! that explains that
(i tend to disable svgs since it doesn't break functionallity and removes a good amount of ui clutter, in this case it actually broke functionality)

[timlg07]

ah, I see ^^
(and it looks a bit like you're using the web in a terminal haha)

I guess we should at least be thankful it's not Clippy. "It looks like you're trying to create a new repository. Do you want me to help?"

[timlg07]

true, I hate things like popups saying this. Clippy was cute tho, I miss him

They've clearly been put there in error. The 3-dots menu tells me why they're there: apparently I've not opened a PR or created a repo recently.

Except I'm pretty sure I've done both of those, pretty recently!

hello guys, there is a new update on the For You feed, you can now filter it, and for those who don't want it can simply disable it by unchecking all filters
