When I open a new post, the top banner with the LessWrong link to the homepage, my username etc. show up. I’d prefer if that didn’t happen?
I’ve never considered that. I do think it’s important for the banner to be there when you get linked externally, so that you can orient to where you are, but I agree it’s reasonable to hide it when you do a navigation on-site. I’ll play around a bit with this. I like the idea.
Noting that I use the banner as breadcrumb navigation relatively often, clicking LessWrong to go back to the homepage or my username to get a menu and go to my drafts. The banner is useful to me as a place to reach those menus.
Totally. The only thing that I think we would do is to start you scrolled down 64px on the post page (the height of the header), so that you would just scroll a tiny bit up and then see the header again (or scroll up anywhere and have it pop in the same way it does right now).

No idea how common that use pattern is.
