One of the more annoying software that does this is the copilot Office 365 on the web. Every time (!) I open it, it shows a popup on how to add files to the context. That itself would be annoying, but it also steals focus! So you would be typing something and suddenly you’re not typing anymore for M$ decided it’s time for a popup. I finally learned to just wait for the pop up and then dismiss it with esc. Ugh!

If you login to the exchange online admin center you first have to complete a short "on-rails-shooter" video game. They constantly shuffle shit around and want to give you a tour via popups about it.

I have the admin accounts for multiple companies, so I have to play the game repeatedly.

MS has never learned to not interrupt the user. This has been a dark pattern for them since their very first window manager.
