Agree, what an absolute oversight to not have this option anymore. Extremely important when logging Teams correspondence.
In New Teams, this option does not work.
Having the time and date stamps in addition to the names of the people chatting is imperative.
You missed the part about click-and-hold the highlighted text, then Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V. The default Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V no longer takes the user×tamp. There are many articles where the timestamp was getting in the way of coding, etc. I don't mind the change as long as I can get it.
This doesn't work well at all either though. It gets this weird formatting that is not usable for a straight copy paste, It pastes a preview of the message along with the entire message. I still have to do a bunch of editing. This is a garbage upgrade and needs to be fixed. The masses of people who copy paste are not using it for coding, that is an edge case and should not be the main focus of programming.

yes
I've seen this same pasting results far into the past sometimes and think this latest change just brought it fully to the forefront.
It's as if there is no QA to these changes as any little testing should make this obviously an unacceptable solution.
