Since the updates to the right sidebar there is now a <div class="js-sidebar-zone" ..., which on other sites seems to work as intended; however, with the new homepage on Stack Overflow, it comes with the minimum height set to 300 pixels:

<div class="js-sidebar-zone" style="min-height: 300px;">
... 
</div>

This results in an empty space between the other sidebar widgets and recently viewed posts:

    If you don't' block ads, and wait 15 seconds for the ads to load, it isn't empty, ;) Commented Jan 16 at 18:46
  • @KevinB do we need style="min-height: 300px;" for ads? Commented Jan 16 at 19:44

    No, we don't. I presume it was added for some other reason (js based sticky?) and then made redundant by proper position sticky usage but left there Commented Jan 16 at 19:46

    You could call it a feature. The gap is a reminder that you're blocking ads. Commented Jan 21 at 10:50
