<blockquote>
<p dir="auto">There was a question of whether this was necessary, privacy implications, LWG discussion, etc. As communicated to me, this is the decision:</p>
<ul dir="auto">
<li>OSM have a legitimate interest to show the heatmap, so it's ok that users get it by default.</li>
<li>The heatmap is not strictly necessary in order to use OSM, so users should have the ability to hide it.</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">Correct, this is an accurate description of what the LWG decided. I’ve updated <a class="issue-link js-issue-link" data-error-text="Failed to load title" data-id="2921894706" data-permission-text="Title is private" data-url="https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/5804" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/5804/hovercard?comment_id=3638311030&comment_type=issue_comment" href="https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/5804#issuecomment-3638311030">#5804 (comment)</a> with more details.</p>
<blockquote>
<p dir="auto">The option appears as a checkbox under the heatmap. At the moment, any preferences that affect the profile can be reached from the profile page, so filing this under Preferences didn't feel right.</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">I’d agree with <a class="user-mention notranslate" data-hovercard-type="user" data-hovercard-url="/users/gravitystorm/hovercard" data-octo-click="hovercard-link-click" data-octo-dimensions="link_type:self" href="https://github.com/gravitystorm">@gravitystorm</a> that the actual preference should be under /profile somewhere. We don’t have a separate page for previewing your own profile as it appears to other users, so a For consistency, I think the user would expect to see a button that takes them to the specific tab of the Edit Profile page. Unfortunately, this means yet another tab so we have something to link to.</p>
<p dir="auto">(I wonder if we need to revisit the decision in <a class="issue-link js-issue-link" data-error-text="Failed to load title" data-id="3114614464" data-permission-text="Title is private" data-url="https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/6084" data-hovercard-type="pull_request" data-hovercard-url="/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/pull/6084/hovercard" href="https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/pull/6084">#6084</a> to tie each of these tabs to a path rather than a named anchor and URL hash. Eventually we’ll have enough preferences that the tab bar will get pretty unwieldy. Or maybe we need to have a dedicated page for previewing the profile so we can make the default view more interactive…)</p>
<blockquote>
<p dir="auto">For admins - why do they need to see it? Should this be visible to moderators too? I would think moderators are more focussed on mapping behaviour than admins, but I don't know if either group use the heatmap as part of their tasks.</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">I vaguely recall comments that the heatmap would be useful to DWG members, but I can’t find them anymore, or maybe it was just speculation. In any case, if the administrators don’t see a need to always see the heatmap, then let’s hide it for them too. We can always revisit if the need arises.</p>
