Badge alert for teams channels
Agree with @BryanCiaraldiTSB and Shiri1205 to my mind the best behaviour (but could be configurable) would be to have all unread count towards a total unread count in the taskbar icon regardless of whether in the Chat or Teams section, and then the left bar showing how many unread in each of "Chat" and "Teams" icon, but only adding the "Activity" count as well IF @mentioned, otherwise inconsistent when some use a channel in Teams as a Chat window vs Chat window itself, which skews the way people use it, some just driven toward Chat instead, some @mentioning the whole channel each time they post in a Teams channel and some doing neither, then for those previously used to a Skype way of working in the past, and the risk of missed messages is then high as I've found.
