The news widget is terrible, and the sole reason I haven't switched to windows 11. I spent about 30m turning off news source after news source before giving up. Apparently there is an infinite supply of them.

It's actually a problem for me at work because they keep drawing my eye and distracting me from getting work done. It's crazy. What are they thinking?

Which is hilarious, because they always market windows 10 and 11 through the lens of "optimizing your workflow".

Except, obviously, when they want the news app to attract your attention and get a few advertising cents.
