Okay, the short version. Either the feature isn't really completed or this is what the experience look like when using "People in this chat" or "Specific people" (same thing) as that option is a more restrictive sharing permission which prevents broad internal sharing. Still I don't get the same info-banner as m36five trying to reproduce.

    StephenRice Brilliant, I just knew something was wrong considering the inconsistencies. Didn't think about it as a fix needed but rather a not fully completed rollout. Anyway, great news!

     

    Everyone else, now we can sleep at night ;D

    We are also seeing this message. I have to agree that the message is misleading and feel this will be an issue for others as well.
