Microsoft’s Attempts to Improve the Teams UI Are Not Always Successful

Microsoft is tweaking the auto-hide inactive channels feature to make it less automatic and more user controllable (opt-in). It’s a good change for Teams to make. In other news, I’ve reverted to the old method of accessing chats and channel conversations because the new experience doesn’t work for me. Both situations prove how hard it is to make GUI changes to popular applications.
