When adding or editing a post for the first time, Gutenberg shows a big weird blocking tip thing. Aside from the relatively confusing look and disconnected styling of the thing, it's also per-device and per-browser, so every new visit to Gutenberg requires acknowledgement and dismissal of the same obtrusive thing before I can do anything.
To Reproduce
Expected behavior
Tips like these should not use local storage. They should be persistent across sessions, and belong in the database, so users are not required to re-dismiss something repeatedly across all devices.
