Since day one, Google Chrome used to just update. Silently. You open Chrome and return to your last tabs without realizing it was updated [unless you notice they redesigned something].

But since a few years ago Chrome team decided it's important to show users a toast "Chrome was updated". OK, why would I care?

Or even worse, instead of opening my last tab, it opens the What's New page. There is no option to turn it off.

Users open browser to do what's on their mind, not read your changelogs.
