@lennart:0520.ch | hej you all, thilobillerbeck (avocadoom) you merged a NixCon ticket sale announcement as the top banner on nixos.org two days after the 25.05 release announcement. I noticed because I had trouble finding the release notes. I guess few people know that you need to click "Blog", on the entry, etc. (as a helping hand at NixCon) I do understand the importance of selling tickets. but just two days for the release announcement is a bit troublesome because users might miss it (especially regarding our brief EOL timeframe). also as a release manager I would feel kinda disrespected. could we discuss possible solutions to this problem? https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-homepage/commit/95a7c1f2e0588cb2b2fe9bf877dea585031d1b3a | 04:50:47 |

@lennart:0520.ch | I'd propose working on multiple banners at the same time, if wanted and possible :) | 08:33:47 |
avocadoom | In reply to @lennart:0520.ch I'd propose working on multiple banners at the same time, if wanted and possible :) We need to find another solution for that. Having multiple banners will create a horrible UI and UX since it'll result in a lot of noise. | 09:40:59 |
