I respectfully disagree on one detail. In my setup the opposite held true, though I suspect it comes down to community size.

Adding a small note: the same idea applies on mobile, just with a bit more attention to tap targets.

Strong agree. Good defaults beat a wall of toggles every single time.

Great point. I had not considered the angle you raised in the second paragraph — it reframes the whole thing for me.

Tried this on a staging copy first and it behaved exactly as described. Confident enough to roll it to production now.

This matches my experience exactly. The hard part is staying consistent once the initial novelty wears off.
