Please stop asking me to provide feedback #8036

A GitHub issue titled “Please stop asking me to provide feedback” just became the mood board for every annoyed software user. One frustrated dev says Claude Code keeps popping up with “How’s this session going?” and wants a hard “Do Not Ask” switch. The thread here didn’t just vent — it sparked a mini culture war over nagging pop-ups, data collection, and trust. The zinger of the day: someone joked the post itself is… feedback. Cue collective eye-roll and applause.

From there, the comments turned spicy. One user launched into a full “Consent Fatigue Bingo,” begging apps to stop asking for cookies, email signups, reviews, phone numbers, even income. Another went deep on trust, warning no company can truly promise your data won’t be repurposed later — unless there’s an airtight contract with audits and penalties. Enter the nuclear take: a commenter said these prompts are part of RLHF — Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback, basically training the AI with our opinions — and called premium users “paypigs” while cheering for open-source rivals. Others added that the nag shows up at the start of a session, before anyone can rate anything, so the data might be junk. The vibe: people don’t just want fewer pop-ups — they want control, clarity, and a giant “leave me alone” button.
