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.

    @Paul Dodd1

    i agree with this sentiment absolutely. i would only add that the thing that peeved me the most about clippy was that every time it popped up on the screen, it looked like it was flipping me off while it was wagging the free end of the clip at me. talk about enraging behavior.

    @DoneWithMS_051:

    not that i disagree with where you are coming from on this analysis, but i think it's actually worse that that. today, all of the little UI coders think that they are . . . each and every one . . . the next coming of steve jobs. steve had a unique ability to get it right more than 50% of the time when he tried to figure out what people needed, even if they may have responded to a proposition in the negative when asked.

    today's UIs are sad, and typically written by those who equivocate different and better.

    m$ . . . fix this crapware that you foist upon us.

    Just more of microsoft being absolutely disrespectful of their users.

    This needs to have a setting that you can disable. I am trying to work my freaking job here, you are getting the way.

    I agree.

    Microsoft should stop doing this, we as Mitsubishi Motors are getting frustrated every time. It's disturbing and our end users start to call Microsoft the NEW GOOGLE. We do not ask for tips and tricks, if user's want to know what is new they can search for it, please keep in mind MS365 E3 and higher are no consumer customers but "Professional" businesses that are responsible for the roadmap within the company.

    We have 31K plus users, and almost all of them are requesting the IT to stop all these popup's, microsoft should think about how disabling it and stop bothering the end-users when a business account is provided to login to app's.

    We are concidering to move away from teams, simply because it starts to become a "WebShop", instead of a tool.

    Microsoft is getting close to be the same as Google, "Buy","Buy","Buy"....
