Skype Today Notification Spam

What’s going on at Microsoft? Have they gone completely crazy? Forcing random stuff into Windows (Suddenly a copilot button? Candy crush ads? Edge trying to make itself happen again and again?) And now even the Skype app starts spamming me with random “Skype Today” stuff... While in Do Not Disturb Skype Today Biden tells Israel's Netanyahu strikes on humanitarian workers in Gaza 'unacceptable'

A screenshot of a post complaining that Microsoft keeps forcing unwanted features, advertisements, and notifications into Windows. The punchline is that Skype’s supposedly random “Skype Today” notification reports Biden criticizing Netanyahu over strikes on humanitarian workers in Gaza, making the notification feel bizarrely intrusive and politically out of place. It is used as a reaction to unwanted software bloat, spam notifications, and absurd product decisions.
