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.

Microsoft gets away with this because Teams is crammed down our throats by others and the only way to avoid it is to quit your job.
This is completely unacceptable.
You need to have Microsoft provide and option to remove those.
Modern tech companies don't care about the wants of the end users. It's all "this is how it is and you're gonna like it or else". Their idea of customization is limited to a color scheme.
Seriously? These can't be turned off? I'm getting these for features I already use - not just once but the exact same pop up multiple times. Talk about bad design!
I totally agree, it is infuriating to have to undure these popups all the time. Extremely annoying and time wasting. If I want to know how a certain feature works I am capable enough of fingint this myself.
No wonder so many people find the new teams extremely taxing.
