Install Linux, or just find a debloat script or something

One way would be to switch your default search engine to Bing in Chrome.

atri ,

I bet that doesn’t stop it lol

And another is to just use Microsoft Edge already. Jesus Christ, Edge is an ACTUALLY GOOD WEB BROWSER. It’s based on Chromium, so there’s no usable difference, plus you can access passwords.google.com in Edge with no issue.

No, thank you.

Right? They’re the same browser just reporting everything you do to different people.

Exactly. Just bend over and grab your ankles, they’re going in dry.

Lt_Cdr_Data ,

Are you actually bots? I can’t believe you would suggest either chrome or bing if privacy is a concern to you. It’s firefox and duckduckgo all day, every day…

Tathas ,

I mean, if I was a bot, I’d probably be more productive.

I think you might have meant to ask if I was a shill. But in any case, OP specifically asked a question in relation to using Chrome and related to being pressured to use Bing. While my suggestion was pretty tongue-in-cheek, it was still on topic. You saying “Use Firefox instead” is kind of a poor answer that might appeal to your bias, but isn’t really on topic for this question. I would guess that OP is aware of other browser options.

InvaderDJ , to technology in How do i stop this kind of pop up from ever appearing again? Win10

Where/when does this popup come up? Is it in your browser, is it a Windows notification?

The most recent time I think I saw this was the latest Windows 11 update, but you can just click No and it goes away. Microsoft is being annoying persistent about getting people to use Bing now because of ChatGPT and Edge though. Hopefully there is a limit, if not the annoying Linux recommendations might actually start to have some merit.

DoNotSpy is a tool that can disable all the Win10-11 bloatware.

THIS IS AN ANSWER. Everyone gotta jump in and throw fanboyism over their favourite OS or browser, but no one answers OP. Do better Lemmy.

You could try clicking Yes once, and then immediately switching it back, either to DuckDuckGo or Google.

Matombo , to technology in How do i stop this kind of pop up from ever appearing again? Win10

Click Yes ;) Or don’t use windows

simin , to technology in How do i stop this kind of pop up from ever appearing again? Win10

Perhaps use redirect scripts or plugins or apps. Windows often about registry so do try that.

JTode , to technology in How do i stop this kind of pop up from ever appearing again? Win10

I must be the fortieth to advise you to install Linux.

Do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior, Linus Torvolds?

JuxtaposedJaguar ,

Akshually Linus Torvalds is a prophet, Richard Stallman is our lord

Blackmist ,

That’s GNU/Richard Stallman to you!

JuxtaposedJaguar ,

I’ve taken to calling him GNU + Richard Stallman

chili1553 ,

I’d like to interject for a moment,

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

If you’re going to interrupt, we support SIGINT, SIGSTP, SIGHUP, SIGTERM, SIGQUIT, and, if you’re really feeling passionate about it, SIGKILL.
