No option to turn off notifications for a single post

Teams documentation[1] has instructions for turning off notifications for a specific conversation.

I have been using this feature for years without issue.

As of several weeks ago, I no longer have this option when I open the dropdown menu for a post.

Has the feature been removed, or moved somewhere else?

    Adding my voice to the chorus chanting "bring back Turn Off Notifications" for all conversations and chats.

    I am adding my name to the list. Thanks Keith for the writeup. You summarized this specific problem perfectly. I cannot understand why this feature would be taken away. This leads to constantly getting unnecessary updates and missing out on the ones you need because you cannot edit anything but channels vs. posts.

    It is important that I get notifications in general, but I DO NOT need to get dozens of audio, visual, and email alerts for people replying to a happy birthday conversation!

    The ability to silence notifications on a case-by-case basis is a critical feature.

    Another +1 in support of this.

    The current state is absolutely infuriating and unacceptable.

    And another +1 to have this fixed.
    This is so annoying I just stopped replying to all channel posts to avoid getting notifications for all following replies...

    I understand. I'm just making the point that even muting the whole channel doesn't stop notifications on that one post I contributed to. Shouldn't it?

    Good news for all of us who were missing the ability to turn on or off notifications for a particular post.

    This was included recently in the 365 Roadmap website:

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=&searchterms=399782

    It says rollout starts July 24 so it should be back on very soon.

    I was using Teams Classic and after the latest update, the Turn Off Notifications for individual posts disappeared.
