I'd like to be able to create a channels within a Teams for things like "Video Tutorials" or a "Newsletter", then direct users to that channel to see the content from a website or SharePoint page.

If we want to keep people in the Teams experience, having to have Posts as the default channel means that org-wide uses are difficult. Being able to set alternate defaults would help.

Definitely need this so that Calendar or Planner tab defaults and not messy Post feed.

We would need this feature also. ASAP is unfortunately not fast enough!
We would like to set a Planer Tab as the default Tab for a channel to get the important information directly shown when opening the channel. -

When selecting a channel in a Team site, the right pane automatically shows posts. It would be great do be able to show a different tab as the one that initially shows in the right pane.

This would be a great feature! We are using a channel for Stream recordings and would be great for this tab to be open by default when you click on the 'Recordings' Channel

so Microsoft has this UserVoice, gets tons of feedback requesting the feature and 2 years later it is still not implement. what's the point if you just ignore your customer feedback anyways.

Certain teams (groups) have different primary tab needs. Teams should be able to accommodate.

It is imperative to have the capability of changing default tab "Posts" to something more productive like "Files" or my Tab of choosing.

I have a lot of secretaries that would love to be able to see files first!

This would be a hugely beneficial addition for my workforce. Large number of staff who specifically need only information in a specific tab but no use for posts/conversations. Having that content able to be configured as the default view makes it much more likely that staff will remember to look for updates. One click may not seem like much friction but any friction that can be avoided is a good thing.

I would like to create an application that has a powerapp as the landing page in Teams, It's just not possible in its current state to do this. We're talking an enterprise level application to reach the entire university, roughly 32000 people.

Having some other Tab than Post as the default opening for a teams is a major item... We use files and other tabs but do not use posts in a team but every team starts with Post and it looks and is confusing for users. Being able to click on a Team and see something besides post is a must.

The lack of this feature is making me not want to use teams. I built a beautiful home page but no one will navigate to it or use the features because they will see the links in the channels so they will just nav on their own. If my homepage was first they would use it much more. We will never use posts or files

I use Files 10x more than Posts. I should be able to set Files as the default.
