Feedback hub on Windows 10 just asked me about Google Chrome. It said MS will use my feedback to improve their products. So, when did they buy Google?
Proof that it did ask me this![^]
I believe person who had the task to write code for asking for feedback when MS browser (IE or Edge) is closed was too optimistic. Instead of writing code for specific browser, they assumed default browser will be one of the two!

so we could screw them up big time....
if everyone replied "the only thing wrong with chrome is it sucks"
maybe they'll bring back edge ie11 internet explorer 8 (= their most successful browser ever)

Wow. In a sad way. They can't come up with a decent browser? I am not saying it is easy to make a browser but then we are talking about MS here. They are a huge company.

That doesn't say MS own Google, it's checking on your happiness with Chrome, and using that to determine if Edge is likely to be used instead. The more likely you are to recommend Chrome, the more they need to improve IE / Edge.
And boy, do they ever need to improve Edge ... still a pile of cat poo. Only thing it does nicely is read some ebooks.

I selected not at all likely and gave a feedback stating edge is the best. You can thank me later.

Old habits die hard. If they only made Edge look exactly like IE[*] (and then eventually switch to the Chrome engine, whenever that'll take place) then I'd switch in a heartbeat.
[*] Yes, IE is still my default browser. Unlike Chrome, its private mode does clear everything (or at least it gives a better impression that it does than Chrome).

MS had not bought Google.

What's up with all the clown car crap going on in the editor? Every time I move the cursor, the editor lights up like room full of freakin clown noses. There's so much going on that it's hugely distracting.

EDIT - I came back because I thought OP said 2019. 2017 never had these features for me, but 2019 does and has all kinds of popups. I think OP meant 2019??
I just downloaded and installed it EDIT #### (2019)#### and tried it out too.
It really is over the top.
Check this one out (png) https://i.stack.imgur.com/yw6zj.png[^]
It says, "Light Bulbs like this..." But that is a screwdriver. ???
And stuff is popping up all over the editor.
It has git comments and stuff that pop up in there.
Well, now to find how to turn this stuff off.
These features are the sign of someone who doesn't really understand VStudio who has read a list of features that devs want and has directed their addition.
For example, I've often wanted to know the diff on a file in studio when it tells me something has changed, but not like this. Let me just click a button to see it, don't pop it up every time I move the cursor.

I must be doing something wrong. It works great for me. Then again, I'm left handed so I'm used to being different.

 My dad's a leftie, and apparently when I started writing as a kid I was using my left hand also but I'm told someone forced me to "correct" that. I have no such recollection.
All I know is that these days my handwriting wouldn't be much worse if I started using my left hand.
