Products from Western developers. True, such a product is based on the Chromium platform, the development of just the same Western experts represented by Google. But Chromium is just a platform, Yandex Browser is very different from the mass of other Chrome clones thanks to the careful work on it by the Russian search engine development team. Their developments on top of the Chromium platform concern not only a modified interface, as can be found by running that other clone Chrome browser. The Yandex browser has its own security system and its own separate functionality. Yandex.Browser is the leader in the number of extensions that can be installed, since it supports both the Chrome store and the Opera store. And, of course, Yandex.Browser has its own unique interface, tailored to work with the creator's services.
One of these services is the Yandex.Zen news collection integrated into the browser, which, alas, has not found proper public support during its existence. Not appreciating the efforts of the creators of the browser, many users are looking for ways to disable Yandex.Zen. How to do this, we will consider at the very end of the article, first we will talk about what this function is and whether it should be disabled.
About Yandex.Zen
The service of the Russian search engine, also known as the regular functionality of Yandex.Browser, ornately named is nothing more than a regular news selection, displayed on the home page of the Tablo web browser previews of new articles from certain sites.
The news selection is endless, scrolling down will open more and more previews of materials from the Internet.
The service is available on desktop and mobile versions Yandex.Browser, as well as a separate application for Android - Yandex Launcher.
Service built from contradictions
Why did this completely harmless functionality so displease that many people want to disable Yandex.Zen? It is woven from contradictions, perhaps because the efforts of developers are not destined to be appreciated by the browser audience.
In the pursuit of beautiful names for its services, the company obviously overdid it in this case, naming the chaos of incoming information in honor of Zen, a school of Buddhism whose teachings are denied, if not by everyone, but by many things from worldly life, and meditative practices prefer social aggression and news confusion.
The news collection is based on a self-learning mechanism that forms it in accordance with the interests of users. This is achieved by analyzing the Internet resources they have visited. But the creators of the service forgot to provide for the possibility for users to add new materials to the collection from their favorite sites. News can only come from sites provided by Yandex.
This nuance, for the most part, has led many to want to disable Yandex.Zen.
News selection activation
A little earlier, the news collection was embedded in the default browser along with its installation in Windows. As of the date of writing the article, the rules of the game have been changed: Yandex.Zen is activated only at the request of the user - if he turns it on during the initial configuration of the web browser.
Do I need to disable the news selection from the standpoint of saving system resources
If the news selection is not annoying, but we are talking about a device with problematic hardware characteristics, is it necessary to bother with the question of how to disable Yandex.Zen? On a computer with a weak processor or a slow HDD, this kind of functionality will not play a special role. But on devices with a low indicator random access memory(2 GB or less) any extra browser functionality - unnecessary extensions, regular news collections, embedded RSS aggregators, etc. - it is desirable to disable. Since all Chromium browsers are sharpened for the active use of RAM.
in Yandex.Browser
On a computer with a Yandex browser installed, you can disable the news collection in the settings.
Going into the settings section, we are looking for the column "Appearance settings".
Here, by removing the option to display the news feed, as shown in the screenshot above, in fact, you can disable Yandex.Zen.

At the same time, not everyone appreciated such an update, so many users of the aforementioned browser began to think about how to disable this service so that it would not be annoying with its obtrusiveness.
