With hybrid OneDrive in Sharepoint 2013, my site (about me) redirects to Delve. Can this be disabled ?

I just want the OneDrive link to be udpated to OneDrive 365 but not the my site/about me link to Delve.
I don't actually understand the logic behind the redirect to Delve. People search in SP2013 will return content from SP2013 user profiles, not from Delve and since users can no longer edit their user profile in SP2013 that's obviously a problem.
As there is no sync between the 2 (except for AD attributes) I just don't see a solution to the problem but to keep link to profile page unchanged while the onedrive link would be updated.

Thanks

I suggest you refer to this article to reconfigure hybrid Microsoft OneDrive.

Thanks,

Well I don't know how it was setup in your case but I used the Office 365 settings in Sharepoint Central Admin (http://[central admin]/_admin/cloudconfiguration.aspx) MS Doc. is inconsistent as it mostly only refers to the OneDrive while in others it's specified that it will also redirect my profile page to 365 (which it does in my case). My understanding is that this was changed to include user profile with a CU released after SP1. Check out: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/hybrid/hybrid-picker-in-the-sharepoint-online-admin-center it says: "Hybrid OneDrive - Choosing this option will redirect on-premises My Sites/OneDrive sites to SharePoint in Microsoft 365 and OneDrive..." AND "... This option also sets up hybrid user profiles. When users click to view a profile, they will be redirected to the profile in Microsoft 365." ![103738-image.png][1] [1]: /answers/storage/attachments/103738-image.png

Delve is the profile page of record in SPO, so what you're seeing is expected behavior. There are no configuration options to enable/disable this feature independently of OneDrive hybrid.

Thank you for confirming what is not consistently documented.
So after enabling OneDrive hybrid, since users are directed to Delve instead of their SP user profile page/site, how do you address the People search problematic ?
Sharepoint will return results from Sharepoint profile content in the People search vertical (about me, skills , linked documents etc) not from Delve. If you can no longer update this information in your Sharepoint profile as a user this makes no sense. Is there a recommended approach to address this ?

As workaround I was looking at overriding the about me link but that would not be sufficient as clicking on a user name anywhere in SP would open his Delve profile page so this is not an option.
There must be a (unsupported) way to revert this behaviour to what it was before the CU update (i.e. OneDrive redirect only).
Is there a user voice where I could request the Delve redirect as being optional ? I suppose the same is true for SP2016 and 2019 ?
