Align welcome survey treatment group with homepage treatment group
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

First deployment of Growth features to English Wikipedia will first happen only to 2 % of the newcomers. Before doing so, @MMiller_WMF wants to show welcome survey only to users with homepage enabled.

In this task, we want to add a config variable WelcomeSurveyEnableWithHomepage. If this variable is true, welcome survey will show the welcomesurvey to all users with homepage enabled, and no survey to the rest of them.

This is similar to T284127: Make it possible to deploy welcomesurvey to % of users that's not divisible by 10.

@Etonkovidova This becomes QA-able when Growth features arrive to English Wikipedia (scheduled for tomorrow 11:00 UTC). All users who have homepage enabled at enwiki will also have welcomesurvey, and no other user will. At non-enwiki wikis, all users will receive welcome survey.

Not sure if you want to keep this in QA separately, or just leave it to the main one - up to you.

FTR, this has happened. The expected behavior as-of now is: 2% of production enwiki newcomers have WelcomeSurvey, the same 2% also have homepage, and no other user has any Growth features.

Noting T284599 happened as a consequence of this task (and should be fixed already).
