Users added to team line removed
In each general channel a new line gets created for all new users added to a team. Can this line be removed?
As an example I setup a team and get some posts ready for welcome messages and introductions, then when I add groups of people, after a few lines all my messages have pushed up and off the screen.
We have one specific team for all in the business and all the threads are getting lost as we add each department/individuals one by one.

The team is reviewing this item and discussing potential short term and long term solutions for this. Thanks.

Please, Please Please add the option to remove this! It shouldn't be that difficult? When you have teams with hundreds of members this dominates the timeline when there aren't that many updates. VERY annoying and reduces the desire to use Teams vs Slack.

This is much needed, urgently! - in some situations when an employee leaves, they and the employer reach an agreement to limit negative impact on each party of that employee leaving (this can include 'subtle' removal from workspaces. Having an '*** has removed YYY from the team' message posted to all Teams they were part of could violate any reached agreement.

Yes please make it happen, this really holds back our wide company channel. Thank you.

Yes please - there should be an option for Team owners to selectively hide/delete activity notes, or put them in a separate place somewhere away from the General Channel. They are cluttering up and diluting the place where we want to make our announcements loud and clear.

Sanjay Dhingra has a very common sense approach that balances security with user enablement: "hide notifications for 'members' of a team and only show it for 'owners.'"

Move to slack seems better. That is very non-sense feature of Team

When will there be an update?

A simple default behaviour would be to hide notifications for "members" of a team and only show it for "owners"

Cannot believe it has taken close to two years for Microsoft to review and work on working on this feature for removing the annoying User joined/left messages. I am in some groups that has 1000's of users and I just cannot get to the actual messages in the group because of all the cluttering caused by Joined/left messages. Sincerely hoping this is rolled out very soon.

What's the status of the review? I have a couple of thousand people on one Team and I can't get any messages or content out on that channel from all the clutter. And since you cannot move the Posts tab, it just dilutes the collaboration, which was the point

it's not very good for employee morale to see a list (sometimes extensive) of former employees a team owner removed from the team when they have been terminated from employment, especially during these trying times.

I believe this is part of a biggers problem: conversations and channel updates being thrown together at the same place. For bigger Teams, this makes the General channel less useful than it could be - it ends up being just that, a place for automatic lines.

Also, create/delete channel message. Please provide a way to suppress these messages from General.

If a change was made to allow you to hide the notification that a user has joined/left the team in the channel, would this also be applied to Teams meetings where notifications appear in the chat when attendees have joined/left the meeting? If you have 200 people on a meeting these notifications clutter the chat and make it hard to do polls and have discussion.
