jaws points out that the current eTLD+1/baseDomain enhancement causes bugzilla.mozilla.org to be enhanced by mozilla.org's enhanced tile. Fyi, bug 990322 is to only show one thumbnail from a given eTLD+1, so if the user would have both bugzilla.mozilla.org and mozilla.org, only one of them would be shown, and we would probably want to enhance that one tile. An alternative I mentioned in bug 990322 comment 4 is that maybe we should just take the whole domain.
If we did this, we need to treat 'www.example.com' as the same as 'example.com', and potentially any other generic subdomains.

Not sure what's a good way to handle this and if that blocks fixing this bug or not. Doing a quick scan through my top tiles, I see prefixes including www. wwws. online. m. web. for english sites.

Also, dao has a patch in bug 990322 to remove repeat tiles from the same eTLD+1, but we probably want to use the same logic here and there.
Depends on: 990322
We won't do something smarter than eTLD+1 initially especially given bug 990322 probably landing soon where there wouldn't be multiple tiles from the same eTLD+2 but same eTLD+1.

This has more or less broken the new tab page for me. I went from having 9 useful tiles to 1 often used tile, 5 infrequently visited tiles and 9 blank tiles.
(In reply to Kevin Brosnan [:kbrosnan] from comment #5) > I went from having 9 useful tiles to 1 often used tile, 5 infrequently visited This bug 1045760 is part of making that smarter instead of only going by eTLD+1. Curious, are the tiles getting merged all mozilla.org? You can drag bookmarks into the new tab tiles to pin a site (where pinned sites don't get duped).

Yes, multiple manually pinned tiles are getting the mozilla.org "banner" image and identical tile title. You have to hover to reveal the actual link.

With my own profile, the patch here shows these additional sites: (tbpl.mozilla.org current top eTLD+1 mozilla.org) bugzilla.mozilla.org air.mozilla.org hg.mozilla.org addons.mozilla.org trychooser.pub.build.mozilla.org intranet.mozilla.org (cloud.feedly.com current top eTLD+1 feedly.com) feedly.com (mail.google.com current top eTLD+1 google.com) docs.google.com maps.google.com news.google.com drive.google.com www.google.com (/flights) plus.google.com

And then there will be false positives, e.g. there might be good reasons why a user would choose between secure.foo.bar and foo.bar depending on the situation. By the way, what's wws / wwws? I don't recall having ever seen this.

Why not use the > full domain at this point? That's exactly what I said in bug 990322 comment 4! ;) Switched to just asciiHost. At least from my own top 100 links, the only difference between eTLD+2 vs asciiHost (assuming the same www-type cleanup) is build.mozilla.org vs trychooser.pub.build.mozilla.org. > >+ // Strip off common subdomains of the same site (e.g., www, load balance) > >+ return eTLD2.replace(/^(m(obile)?|secure|www*s?)\d*\./, ""); > This is kind of annoying, this list will get very long if it should cover a > wide range of non-distinctive subdomains (let alone for different locales). Nod. I was analyzing all the hosts in my moz_hosts and there were other ones that came up such as i\d*. s\d*. although the latter would have incorrectly trimmed off s3.amazonaws.com. > And then there will be false positives, e.g. there might be good reasons why > a user would choose between secure.foo.bar and foo.bar depending on the > situation. > By the way, what's wws / wwws? I don't recall having ever seen this. The secure and www*s are related where some sites use "wwws" to imply a secure subdomain. Actually, I only see it for mint.com. Removed secure/wwws.

I don't think m\d, mobile\d, ww or wwww are common enough to be included here. Can you remove them too?

Comment on attachment 8481542 [details] [diff] [review] v3 Approval Request Comment [Feature/regressing bug #]: bug 990322 / bug 1036299 [User impact if declined]: Only one mozilla.org tile will be shown/enhanced limiting our ability to multiple mozilla directory tiles (e.g., mozilla, android, customize, mdn, etc.). Some *.mozilla.org users have reported reduced usefulness of the newtab page because those get collapsed into one. [Describe test coverage new/current, TBPL]: Adds tests for what should be consolidated into a single tile or not with existing tests updated from eTLD+1 to full host. [Risks and why]: Small tweak from eTLD+1 to whole host, and would uplift after it bakes on m-c. [String/UUID change made/needed]: none
