> anonymous users
I think you mean users who are not logged in - "anonymous users" is the term we
use for accounts with `user.data_public == false`. They are quite rare now
since [they haven't been permitted for a long
time](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Anonymous_edits).
As for preferences, I'm happy keeping most preferences available for only
logged in users, since account creation is free and we aim to serve our mappers
(who by definition have accounts) more than just casual visitors. Storing
preferences in cookies does have drawbacks (like cross-device consistency,
automatic cookie expiry etc) so it's not my first choice in general.
