User:😂/BadPrefs

In general, user preferences are bad. They add to code complexity and complicate things for users (especially new users). Also, a lot our preferences are rarely used, people tend to stick with defaults. Many preferences can also be easily replicated with user javascript.

Below is a rough list of preferences that could possibly be removed one day. It would be nice to get accurate usage stats before actually deleting things.
