Is there a way to get rid of the "What's on your mind?" thing?

I take it the answer in no. Which is too bad, I find it so distracting I will not be back.

You could inspect the CSS and HTML of the "What's on your mind?" button and use Stylish or a similar browser add-on to hide it.

Oh well. Safe travels!

Huh. I didn't even notice it til I saw this post, now I can't seem to look away. It doesn't bother me though.

I hear it’s fiendishly distracting.

Just block it with your adblocker. This custom rule should do it.

It's small enough to not be intrusive on a desktop, in my opinion.

On mobile the experience is so poor (even with the mobile "skin") the button is just one out of too many niggles. I have resorted to the EN World app*, even though it means looking at ads.

*) I did have to sideload it, since it didn't appear in my Play Store (I'm on Android 5.1) no matter what variation of search phrase I used. Presumably something that only affects us not in either the UK or the US, or it would have been noticed/fixed already.
