New Teams Interface – can't pin /favorite entire teams
CoPilot wrote this post... in fact its proposed title was New Teams Interface – Missing Basic Functionality & Creating Chaos for Admins, so I think it's sensing a bit of annoyance at the new UI... I’m posting this out of sheer frustration after wrestling with the new Microsoft Teams layout. I'm an IT admin responsible for managing Teams across multiple users, and the recent interface update has made that nearly impossible. Key issue: You can no longer pin or favourite entire teams—only individual channels. This is a huge regression in usability. For power users and admins, being able to organize entire teams was essential. Now, everything’s buried under scattered views, vague icons, and non-intuitive menus. I’ve gone through every menu and setting imaginable. “Show,” “Pin,” “Back to classic”—none of it helps because Microsoft simply removed the feature. Even Copilot (Microsoft's own AI tool) couldn’t make sense of what was missing until we both realized the function was outright gone. That’s saying something. This change is actively hurting productivity for both end users and those of us tasked with supporting them. Updates should make things better—not hide or remove critical features without proper notice or alternatives. Microsoft, please rethink this. Stop redesigning without considering the real-world implications for businesses trying to stay organized. — If others are feeling the same pain, let’s get this some visibility.

'Dial-in callers can be the first person in a meeting' via PowerShell
Hi, Does anyone know where the 'Dial-in callers can be the first person in a meeting' setting is in PowerShell? I have 2,000 accounts to update and need to script this. This used to be labled as 'Unauthenticated users can be the first person in the meeting' but I cant find any PowerShell refernce to this setting. the option is available through the Teams Admin Centre as decribed here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/manage-the-audio-conferencing-settings-for-a-user-in-teams
