"Update available" modal showing up constantly has driven me away

Making moves

This forced popup modal in the corner hanging off the hamburger menu that notifies me that "Update available" is one of the most annoying things in any UX in my life right now. I have waited a month or two for it to ease up, but I'm straight-up offended by the design that forces it to pop up multiple times in a browsing session even if dismissed and by devs also pushing a new update version multiple times a week. I'm just going to try some other browser at this point, this is miserable. Hopefully if enough of us leave, devs will eventually remove this extremely aggressive annoyance.

I mean, it takes a lot of frustration to get me to bother posting complaints like this one and even more to drive me to switch products. Well done.

Hello

As far as I'm concerned, i choose my favorable moment to perform the updates. I use, DisableAppUpdate
