We should use some JS to dismiss flashes after a certain amount of time.

I have not come up with a solution for this yet, but I did find this library, which might be nice to explore.

I started looking into the library posted above (Flashy). It required quite a bit of configuration and customization, to the point where I was asking myself if there was an easier way about this. I think there are some options, mainly, we move mobile flash to the bottom of the screen on mobile, perhaps with some margin — making it easier to close with your thumb.

We can also try setting up an on_mount hook that sets up a handle info to remove flashes, provided we send a message to the self pid, telling the flash to close after N seconds. See this post for details.
