List pills now showing in the list web part, Expected behavior or bug?

On one of the tenants I work on, list filter pills are suddenly showing up in List Web Parts. On two other tenants, they do not.

 

Tenant A and C:  

Tenant B:

 

Since I am seeing both, I am curious to know if this I a bug on "Tenant B" or expected behavior, that I for some reason aren't seeing on "Tenant A" and Tenant C" yet.

 

I really hope this is a bug, since we have no way to disable them! It would break a lot of solutions, where lists are used on pages to show dynamic, embedded content.

    So, I got through to Microsoft at they confirmed it is a bug. The filters are not supposed to show up in a list web part

    Hanne_Lauritzen In our tenant i see the filter pills when i filter.
    Are both tenants on the same update sequence (monthly enterprise, anual or current) Not the 365 apps setting but the organisation setting in the tenant.

      The screenshot were the filter aren't showing is from my own domain. I am on "targeted release" and "as soon as they're ready". I would have to check up on the settings for my clients, but they're definitely not on targeted release, so I am a bit confused that they are now seeing something, that I don't.
      But then again, the whole enrollment of the modern lists seems random, at best, so just hoping for some insight as to which one is by design, moving forward.

        Seeing different functionality in a tenant is a problem that i had to deal with multiple times. Two times during giving a course, the course members saw new functionality, and i did not see it.
        It could be a bug due a last release on your own tenant (target release tenant). We are not on target release, so that could explain that i see the same as your client.

    I’ve encountered a similar issue. As a site owner, I am not seeing the list filter pills in the List Web Part, while a few other site owners within the same tenant are able to see them. After checking with one of our tenant admins, I was told that this is part of a new list feature rollout and there is no option to disable it.

    What’s confusing is that if this is indeed part of the feature, I would expect all users in the tenant to have access to it uniformly. This inconsistency is affecting several of our existing solutions, where we use lists embedded in pages to display dynamic content.

    Could this be a staggered rollout, or is there possibly a configuration issue that's preventing the feature from being visible to all users in the tenant?

      eshfok Well, to make things more confusing, I do not see them anymore. Only thing is, we still need some clarity on what the future holds. Could be that they are just testing things, but which one is it. Are they supposed to show up or not?
