I don’t want that. Popups are one of the reasons I stopped using VSCode. They drive me nuts. Just let me write code.

Just let others silently run code on my computer? Sorry, but not for me.
Isn't that the point of downloading an editor in the first place? Not having to write your own editor code?
The point was silently.
It annoys me a lot as well, though it took me a couple of minutes to turn off the popups.
Once you've done that, it's similar to emacs for me, everything has to be evoked via a shortcut (or Action Palette which works very well in VS Code). The shortcut to show "help" or "docs" is Cmd+K Cmd+I, by the way - easy to type and remember...
The popups in VScode seem explicitly intended to annoy.
Why is showing the release log the default for so many things? Is the average user really going to read them?
It makes you wonder what they are doing with all that telemetry
