Teams: Disable New Feature Popups?

How do I disable ALL popups that announce new features in Teams. You know, the ones with the cheap clipart drawings and redundant announcements. It is infuriating when I am trying to send a message to a colleague and interrupted by a random popup telling me to try a new feature that I'm already aware of and is absolutely useless to me. It hijacks my typing and it's got to go.

    I despise MS teams because of its unwanted popups, but it is the primary chat and video communication tool provided by my company. It is obvious to me that Microsoft does not care what the user community wishes, because this problem persists at least a year and a half after the OP's initial request.

    Well said. The annoyance is one thing. The indifference and lack of a response is another. MS ... because we have to not because we want to.

    I agree! It is getting beyond annoying.

    Or, if I read this correctly, not so much:
