Maybe ask Google then. It’s clearly not an /e/OS introduced item nor Lineage.
To want to have someone go deep into the code to get rid of something that may annoy is a bit unrealistic. IMNSHO.
Then of course there’s the “The source is available. Have at it.” thing.
Although I do consider the change from being in the notification shade to a popup unnecessary, and yes annoying, it has come in handy in that I usually send screenshots through Send Reduced and then Phone Saver via that popup. Or a quick crop. Saving me extra steps of having to open Gallery first and going to the image.
What is a waste of time for one may be a time saver for another.
BTW, you know there is a little ‘x’ on the popup so you can immediately get rid of it. No time wasting then, yeah?
