How to revert UNWANTED Change to the Teams UI

Is there a way I can roll back changes to Teams UI with regards to the tabs on the left side? Recently the TEAMS tab was removed and now the TEAMS are grouped underneath the list of users in the CHAT tab and IMHO it sucks.  It's like the Office Ribbon fiasco of a decade ago where MS just changes what it wants irrespective of what users want.  So how can we undo unwanted damage to the Teams UI so we can return Teams to amore user friendly and desirable layout?

    I agree - this is horrible.  There should be a way to revert it to how I had it earlier today.

      I've figured out how to revert to the original settings, until I get chance to figure out how the new interface works.

      • Click the ellipses - "more list options".
      • Customize View
      • Chats and Channels
      • Select 'select' rather than 'combined'

        Thanks for the info Lynn but for some reason my version of TEAMS was a bit different but I still managed to get to the same setting. In case others version of TEAM is like mine here are the directions:

        1. Click the 3 dots/ellipse at the very top right hand area of TEAMS and just to the left our you pic and from the drop down choices  select SETTINGS .
        2. Select CHATS AND CHANNELS on the left side.
        3. At the top the first setting is Viewing Chats and channels. It's set to COMBINED, select SEPERATE . 

        That's it!
