Thanks, Amir!

*What can people do if they want to see Reference Previews, but not Page
Previews?*
Currently, nothing. The plan is to offer both features in combination. As
for this shared setting, we received different feedback: Some wanted a
combined setting to keep the number of user settings small, others wanted a
separate setting. For now, we have decided to go with a shared setting.

*If an editor currently has the Reference Previews beta feature enabled and
the Page Previews (Popups) feature disabled, will they get both enabled or
both disabled after the deployment of the combined feature?*
The Page Previews user preferences will be respected. In a scenario where a
user has Page Previews disabled, Reference Previews will also be disabled.

Best,
Johanna
