From #6631 (comment):

I like tips. In video games tips are usually togglable in an Options menu. Should we make an option in the More menu that is enabled by default for new users, and is disabled when you're done or dismiss it?

Let's definitely do this. Quick mockup:

Thanks for rustling up this issue. I have tagged it for copy as we can check what we want to have said in that action. @melchoyce mentioned not just saying enable/disable - which I agree.

'Turn on tips' and 'Turn off tips' sounds good to me.

I hate to be difficult here, and the copy can certainly need work. But lets be very careful and super intentional if we change the verbiage in menus on toggle. Generally if we can avoid TWO sets of copy that's superior to one set. Besides, given we have a checkmark, it might be confusing:

✓ Turn on tips

and

  Turn off tips

☝️ Both of those seem wrong to me. Which one should have the check mark?

The alternative is to use the same pattern as the editor choice, and do this:

✓ Turn on tips
  Turn off tips

This takes double the space, and requires its own section, and also seems bad to me. We do it for the Visual editor and Text editor because those two require different labels in order to work.

If we did the following, we could have a single menu item whose label did not change, and in my opinion is easy to read. When tips are enabled:

✓ Enable tips

When tips are not enabled

  Enable tips

Google Docs is the inspiration here. Multiple options, non-boolean menu:

Single option, boolean menu:

I agree with having a single action, maybe 'enable' or 'show' works. Perhaps we can get a copy review suggestion though.

Enable or Show or Display all work, depending on what language you're using for similar kinds of settings; just keep it consistent. (Personally, I like "Show" because it's the plainest and simplest.)
