Ok,
Maybe, we just have to get used to this behavior, if this is, how other
apps do it ... Still strange though to me.
One issue though: what happens, if we revise the content of the news
entry, just like we just did? Then the user has no chance in reading
that revised version.

Yes it only shows if there is news to read
I think we would have to rethink how the client part of the news panel works. The current behavior
that there is no way ever to go back to that news item once you close it through the "X"
of that individual news item, is a bit strange. Apparently, I am not the only one who got
"trapped" by this behavior.
I think this behaviour is consistent with how other apps do it. I remember visual studio used to have (still has?) a feature like this and ones you dispatched news items, they never came back. That's not to say we couldn't add a toggle that lets you reset your feed history somewhere I guess..

Hi
Oh but that little X is for the news item itself. It means 'I've read this, don't show it to me again' if I understand Alessandro's design intent correctly....

Hi,
Hm - maybe there is a difference on "how you turn the news panel off". I tried with a new empty profile and it is the same behaviour like on my default profile. Once I press the little "x" icon on the top right of the news panel, there is no way to turn it back on.

On the other hand, if you go to "Settings" --> "Options" --> "General" and use that option to toggle visibility of the News Panel, then I can really turn it on and off as expected.
So, the culprit seems to be the littel "x" Icon on the top right of the News Panel. Once, you use, that, the news panel is gone for good. No easy way to get it back.

Hi
I just did a fresh install of QGIS 3.10 and it works for me. I will tried toggling the feed off, closing QGIS, opening it, toggling, on, restarting. All worked fine for me (on macOS). Maybe it is a Linux specific issue?
Andreas maybe you can try manually editing settings in your profile to see if it comes back when you remove the flag there?

Hm - I seem to have the same issue. Once the "News feed" is disabled I can't seem to get it back. Regardless of the setting in the "Options" --> "General" --> "Show QGIS news feed on welcome pate" dialogue.
That part of the start screen never comes back.
There is something odd with the news feed section on the start screen.

Hi Tim,
I have restarted my QGIS 3.10 several times, but I still couldn't see the Welcome Message or the news panel. I have enabled "Show QGIS news feed on welcome page" and set the Welcome Page on the project launch.
I only see the "recent project" and "project template" panel in the beginning.
Thanks!
Best regards.

Hi Raymond,
You can confirm it by yourself. Just open https://feed.qgis.org/ and you
will see the entire news feed.
I think we should publish a short "welcome to QGIS 3.10" article
(ideally when the change log is ready), so that we've got something to
show on first load?
fully agreed. Tim already prepared something, probably good to start
from that?
Cheers.
