Thank you lol. It’s disheartening to see people up in arms (majority of MS related posts in the past week) spreading vague misinfo about a disableable feature when they are putting ads in the OS.

Just, priorities, people 🤦‍♀️

The ads in the OS are disableable as well. They just aren't off by default, and are labeled something like "software suggestions" in the settings app.

valid information to know. i don’t think the ads can be turned off during the first boot setup process though, which is a key distinction here.
