The problem

"If we have a whole bunch of them we should figure out how to dismiss them or only show the last few."

  • Copying links or sending texts built a tall column of messages.

    Last three, rest counted

    • Stays short; older messages one click away.

    One at a time

    • Simplest; a quick second message hides the first.
  3. C

    Cap, merge and sticky errors

    • Tidiest; more rules to learn.

What shipped

  • At most three messages show, newest at the bottom.
  • Older ones fold into "+N more · Dismiss all".
  • Hovering still pauses them.

Messages no longer stack up the screen. You see the latest three and can clear the rest at once.
