Comment:

 I am in favor of this change. There may even be a previous ticket from me
 somewhere about this.

 We've cloned this UI for "My Networks" in WP Multi Network, not because it
 is good, but because it is familiar.

 Another consideration when thinking about changing this screen, is that it
 is intended to be a heads-up display of sites the user belongs to. In
 essence, it's the very first WordPress Core site-switcher to easily
 navigate between sites. These "tiles" could be cards or some other UI that
 shows more off (favicons, site descriptions, time zones, etc...)

 I've made the argument previously that the left-hand primary navigation
 ("Dashboard > My Sites") isn't really the best place for users to discover
 how to switch between sites, but it's difficult to find better without a
 dedicated "user dashboard" we can surface everywhere. My WP User Profiles
 plugin does this, but it's not widely advertised or adopted.

 Thanks @eArtboard for the ticket, and for putting the hard work into a
 first pass patch!
