If you are new to LessWrong, here's the place to introduce yourself. Personal stories, anecdotes, or just general comments on how you found us and what you hope to get from the site and community are invited. This is also the place to discuss feature requests and other ideas you have for the site, if you don't want to write a full top-level post.

As is tradition, I've once again found a new bug (on up-to-date desktop Firefox): If I shrink a tab with a LW page horizontally, the notification bar appears and moves along in a distracting manner. Sometimes the bar is white instead of displaying the notifications. Here is a .gif recording of the problem.
Oh actually this is also happening for me on Edge on macos, separately from the perhaps-related Android Chrome bug I described below.

Good question, just did some fiddling around. Current best theory (this is on Android Chrome):
* Scroll the page downward so that the top bar appears.
* Tap a link, but drag away from it, so the tooltip appears but the link doesn't activate. (Or otherwise do something that makes a tooltip appear, I think.)
* Scroll the page upward so that the top bar disappears.
* Tap to close the tooltip.
If this doesn't reproduce the problem 100% of the time, it seems very close. I definitely have the intuition that it's related to link clicks; I also note that it always seems to happen to me on Zvi's posts, in case there's something special about his links (but probably it's just the sheer volume of them.)
