Why can't I just turn off this feature instead of spending time looking for how to turn it off every time the app is updated. I can't turn it off on my phone and this is annoying. The only reason I still use it is because of work. this 2.0 feature is frustrating me. please help to turn it off and never turn on back again by itself.

    I likewise have just been force-switched to have new messages at the top of my channel chats, and this setting is terrible. It's fine if Microsoft wants to give users the option of having new messages at the top, but forcing it on everyone regardless of preference is obnoxious and not well-though-out. Kindly change it back.

    I can't believe this change was implemented without a setting to use the original "new at the bottom" style that every texting/chat/discussion app has used for decades.

    And to have the channel be new at top and chats be new at the bottom just reinforces the absolute lunacy behind the decision making of these UI developers/decision makers.

    Teams is not facebook and no one wants it to be Facebook.

    This decision is so bad we are looking at other options. Microsoft has jumped the shark (again).

    Its these types of decisions that has made me move most personal computers and many servers to linux. I'd rather have choice with quirks than no choice at all.

    To be explicit, this feature was deployed with a feature to turn it off. It was deployed some months ago and there was a toggle to disable the "New Channel Experience" or something like that. I got the changes, looked in the settings and disabled that, and everything was good for a few months.

    Then a week or two ago, a new version was pushed that removed that setting and forced the changes on me / us again.
