Those categories/labels are a Feature of Gmail that they've decided is so important that I can't see any way to turn them off (any more than you can delete the 'spam' folder). You can limit how much they get in your way, however:

Hover over the item count until you see a three-dots icon, and click on that. You can then hide it from displaying in the list of labels and/or displaying in the list of messages.

Then collapse the "Categories" group and you won't need to see the tags again.

My esteemed listmates

In gmail I click Settings > Inbox and there is no check next to social, promotions, updates nor has there been for years.

But, stil those  folders bloat with new emails.

How does one delete these groups forever and keep them deleted?

Thank you.

Charles.
