Question How about that Bing Discover sidebar in Edge?

IDK how pleased the rest of you are about this, but I SURE do wish they had given an option for hiding it.

I have found two very different "supposed" remedy for it showing in the current version. One of them clearly states that a browser update (should) kill it working, and the other is a registry hack. I really hate to follow online registry hacks when I can...you know, cause I care and such.

Whelp!!!

If you mean the thing circled in red, that is trivially hideable.

Top right menu, 3rd from the bottom, Hide.

Edge version - Version 110.0.1587.69

I've got hiding the sidebar as opposed to always show, that aspect was easy.

How about the "Blue b" bubble above?

Yeah,, I got really annoyed with Edge for similar reasons, I tried to daily it, but I got so annoyed of it asking me questions, like do you want to use Microsoft recommended settings, or here whats new with edge, Oh your favorite chrome extensions work with the all new Edge, like Come on, quite asking me, and it will ask again later on after an update, which Win 11 always freakin updates.

So I quite using it, I had cell phones apps the nag me to give them feedback every other time I use, I'll usually uninstall them, too bad I really can't uninstall Edge for being so needy and naggy, man I sound old lol.

I use Chrome for all my work tasks.

I found it much easier to use a different browser for my personal stuff just in case things like forgetting to log out of the work profile and whatnot. I am not a fan of Firefox, so I started using Edge. Like it quite a bit since it went a Chromium base (like so many others). This isn't a situation that would have me decide not to use the browser but I would like to have that gone, if possible. In a few days I probably won't notice as much, or care.

I still use FireFox at home, 100%.
Chrome and Edge at work.
