| Jul 12, 2017 at 15:02 | comment | added | Lightness Races in Orbit | When I saw this meta question earlier, I didn't care. ~8 SE sites later, I care. Bad UX. Almost as bad as the "we use cookies" warnings I have to keep dismissing all across the web; almost. | |

| Jul 12, 2017 at 8:13 | comment | added | rene Mod | Isn't it fun when a small feature turns out in a 6 to 8 weeks monster with many fail cases. And here we are only talking about a banner ... don't get me started on a Q/A feature ... | |
| Jul 12, 2017 at 8:10 | comment | added | Mithical | Gah. I just switched devices and now I have to dismiss them all again - could this also be account-based so that I don't have to dismiss it on different devices? | |

| Jul 12, 2017 at 7:58 | comment | added | Adam Lear StaffMod | @ShadowWizard Eh. If all else fails, there's always incognito windows. I could see a more robust feature set for account-specific, less temporary notices, but for stuff like this? I think it's fine not to worry about it too much. | |
| Jul 12, 2017 at 7:50 | comment | added | Shadow Wizard | @Adam while at it, is this possible to bring the banner back after dismissing it? Someone might click the dismiss by mistake, or later regret it and check again what it said. If done network wide, better also add some option to bring it back, no? | |
| Jul 12, 2017 at 7:48 | comment | added | Shadow Wizard | Thanks @Adam, this makes sense indeed. | |

| Jul 12, 2017 at 7:40 | comment | added | Adam Lear StaffMod | @ShadowWizard On a second read of your comment... IMO the answer to "should the banner be dismissed on sites you join after dismissing it" is a solid "yes". This request reads to me as "make the dismiss work network-wide". | |
| Jul 12, 2017 at 7:38 | comment | added | Adam Lear StaffMod | @ShadowWizard Eh, not really an issue. Even if all we can do is minimize impact... we could set a cookie for most Q&A sites at .stackexchange.com, which would also catch all new sites. That'd reduce the number of dismisses down to 7 (assuming no new SLDs). There are other things we can consider as well (e.g. account id-based entry in a cache shared by all sites for logged in users). Not sure if I'm missing any implications there off the top of my head, though... Hence my theory that it'll be a "next time" kind of thing. :) | |

| Jul 12, 2017 at 6:55 | comment | added | Shadow Wizard | Well it's bit tricky: what about sites you join after dismissing it on a site? Should the banner be dismissed there too? | |

| Jul 12, 2017 at 5:53 | comment | added | Adam Lear StaffMod | Ah, good point. I don't know if we'll have a chance to make the changes needed to make it behave that way this time (the banner isn't gonna be live long enough for it to really matter, basically), but we should keep it in mind for any future dismissable banners that apply to multiple sites (I believe this is the first one we've ever done that does). | |
