Review Summary
Users appreciate the quality of Yandex's search engine but overwhelmingly criticize the 'Yandex Search' Chrome extension for persistent and intrusive pop-ups pushing for installation, aggressive advertising, and causing browser glitches. Many express frustration about constant notifications that appear despite having the extension installed or having Yandex as default search. Some report the extension installing without explicit consent and find the aggressive promotion damaging to Yandex's reputation. Overall, the negative user experience dwarfs the search engine's positive aspects.
Pros
- The Yandex search engine itself is liked by some users, considered good or better than Google in some cases.
Cons
- Persistent and intrusive pop-up notifications requesting extension installation, even if already installed.
- Aggressive and annoying advertising/promotional banners within the search and extension.
- The extension sometimes causes browser instability issues such as opening multiple browser windows, failing to save session tabs.
- The extension seems to install without explicit user permission in some cases.
- Difficulty in disabling or stopping the nagging messages even when Yandex search is already set as default.
