Advertising in Sharepoint for other products? Grrr........ stop Microsoft......

Oh, and to answer your other question - the logic for showing the banner depends on whether the user has the ability to a) create Teams; b) is a group owner; c) Teams is enabled. Very similar to the logic if you were in the Teams experience and created a Team and pointed it to an existing group.
Great! That's better since it targets a specific audience and makes sure specific permissions and prereqs are in place. Actually, that's better than many of the others, to be honest!
- Tejas MehtaThanks all - this is the kind of feedback I was looking for, and is why we started rolling to Targeted Release customers first (I'm talking specifically about the 'Add a Team' feature from SharePoint). We are looking at adding ability to control/dismiss the banner.
The issue here is that there are products/features being highlighted that a certain segment of your customers might not use, might not want to use, or might go against the culture, rules, or business decisions they have made. For instance, "Get the mobile app" being put up everywhere forces specific uses of Sharepoint and places in Sharepoint to be highlighted in a way that forces companies and administrators to have to change how things are rolled out, stored, etc (and not always in a good way). OneDrive does this a little bit too by just showing everything. It's frustrating.
