  • > Welcome to the team! Here are some things to get going...
  • message from Teams's Teams Channel?

  • **Steps to reproduce**:
  • In the left side bar click on "Teams" (it's located under "Chat" for me). Go through the process of creating new team. You will have a new team with default "General" channel. This message appears at the top of that channel.

  • Note:
  • I was able to modify user interface of GitHub Desktop (which is based on Electron JS just like Teams as far as I understand) but opening up Developer Tools and by modifying source css files. I was wondering if I can do the same with Teams if Microsoft does not allow some way of removing it through their interface.

  • After having a few conversations in my team's channel I realized that message gets hidden at the top, but you still see it whenever you scroll to the top and this bad UI just annoys me because it takes up half of my screen and does not provide any value.
