What is the logic behind the selection of the links for the quickicons and the display of the count.

For me it should be important information eg updates and common functions eg new articles

Having used Joomla 4 for a considerable time now I absolutely get the usefulness of these quickicons. However I just don't see the logic behind this extended set. To me it looks like the decision for what to put there was a design issue (I want three rows and six columns) and not a logic decision (what will I use regularly)

For example

  • My site has 1 user and 1 template - so those icons will never be used
  • My site doesn't have cache enabled or it uses the system page cache- so that icon will never be used and the count will always say "false"
  • I really don't care how many plugins my site has. Why would I want to know? How often do you ever go to the plugin manager?
  • Is global checkin really so important? I am the only admin on the site so an item being checked out has no impact

Hi @brianteeman is your suggestion to remove them at all or to disable them in the options of the modules? (That's new in the J!4 version)

In some of my examples they should be conditional. Others should be disabled by default.
