I thought the one lesson we all learned from Clippy is that this kind of interruption is more annoying than useful, I guess the new generation of developers have never experienced Clippy?

It's about engagement and retention - much like newsletter spam and annoying please-subscribe popups, The Metrics always apparently show that they work amazingly compared to a clean page.
- metaphor 6y agoOh yes, hand-waving "The Metrics". What do they say about how often and the speed in which reader view was enabled?
