Missing Ctrl+G shortcut

In "classic" Teams, there was a keyboard shortcut Ctrl+G (/goto) that let you navigate to a desired team or channel, and it worked beautifully. The feature doesn't seem to work in the new Teams client. I miss it very much! Is the feature removed or is it a bug?

 

To go to a Team, I just pressed Ctrl+G, typed a few letters in the team's name and pressed Enter to navigate to the team. Now I have to use Ctrl+E but when I search for a team or channel they are often not found. The search results are only posts, files and persons - not channels/teams. Is there any easier way to navigate to a certain team? I have 100+ teams and don't want to scroll through them all. What have I missed?

    Why would they kill off the goto search bar? 
    I cannot find a way to do this either.

    The keyboard shortcut list nowadays says ctrl-alt-e to search (web), but it does not work.
    Tried on firefox and chrome.

    Ctrl-e on the (new) desktop client works.

    (I cant run the teams desktop client, it takes too much resources so I cant have it up and running when I work. Its bad enough I have to use it when connecting to a meeting, but atleast it works ok.)

      tammer18 As far as I have understood, the /goto command is gone and you are supposed to find your teams by searching for them.

       

      But I cannot find many of my teams that way, especially not class teams. The search result contains no class teams at all. I have reported this to Microsoft and they are investigating.

        David Andersson You can search your Teams & Channels after clicking on "Teams and Channels" tab in the searchbox. It works really well. Did you try that?
