Hi Miceile Barrett hi Mark-Kashman,
Lists has many advantages in interaction with teams and is used for more and more use cases in our company.
Among other things, we use it for issue tracking, campaign planning, and onboarding processes. A big advantage are the threaded conversations per list item. Due to the board view and the triggers for Power Automate, I find it a good alternative to Planner in some cases.
There are a few points that should be supplemented or improved from my perspective.
1) Automatically generated fields like "ID" and "created by" are displayed in the SharePoint list view,
but cannot be displayed in the standard form. But they would be very important!

Is there a trick/workaround to show these fields in the form? If not, this should be added please.
2) Power Apps makes it relatively easy to create custom forms for lists. Unfortunately, the threaded conversations can then no longer be included per item. This means that you lose an important benefit of lists. Is there a way to display a custom form and the conversation?
3) Unfortunately attachments cannot be added to a list item via drag and drop. This should be added please.
4) There is no search function directly in a list when it is included in teams. The focus of the teams search is too global and returns many irrelevant results. Please add a search function that only searches within the list.
I hope that these comments are interesting and implementable and look forward to feedback.
Thanks,
Steffen
