The Return of the General Channel
Last year, Microsoft removed the need to have a General channel in a team. Now the General channel is making a comeback, and you can choose to have one in a team. If you choose to have a General channel, it appears at the top of the channel list. If not, Teams sorts the channel list alphabetically. In other news, code snippets are being replaced by code blocks and the end of classic Teams is nigh. https://office365itpros.com/2025/05/02/general-channel-back/Support Update for SharePoint Framework Field Customizers in Lists and Document Libraries

Participant Camera Questions
During trainings, we'd like to be able to require all attendees turn their cameras on, however, their cameras are only visible to the presenter and not other attendees. We run a 2 person training team, so one presents and the other would monitor the participants. We are trying to eliminate as many distractions as possible and this is one way to do that. We had the Premium subscription, but could not require cameras on.Rollout for spell check to add words to dictionary?
I'm looking at the official teams blog post "What’s New in Microsoft Teams | June 2025". It says that for Teams spell check underlines words, you can now "add them to the dictionary". I'm using Teams at my work. I did a check for updates, and Teams shows: You have Microsoft Teams version 25153.1010.3727.5483 You've got the latest version. It was last checked on 7/3/2025 I'm not seeing an option to add words to dictionary. Is there some kind of phased rollout, and my version has not yet updated to the latest that has this "add to dictionary" capability?
Facilitator Agent Brings AI-Powered Notetaking to Teams Chat
The Facilitator agent can make sense of the messages posted to a Teams chat and summarize the discussion and extract to-do items and unanswered questions. It’s a very practical tool that allows chat participants to focus on the ebb and flow of a conversation instead of pausing to take notes. A Microsoft 365 Copilot license is required before you can use AI Notes in Teams chat. https://office365itpros.com/2025/03/18/facilitator-agent-chat/
