Details:
We will update how the Discover Feed appears in Microsoft Teams to ensure it's helpful and relevant for every user. After this rollout, the feed will be shown to users who are part of more than five channels (including hidden channels). This change will help to ensure the Discover Feed includes meaningful updates and conversations and avoids showing an empty or low-activity feed. As always, we're continuing to evolve the Teams experience based on user feedback and engagement.
This message applies to Teams for Windows desktop, Teams for Mac desktop, and Teams for the web.
