Re-ordering MS Teams teams when the teams list is long

I have a long list of teams in my MS Teams. I want to move a team from the bottom to the top. I click on that team and drag it it only lets me move it with the first screen (the bottom of my list of teams). You would expect the list to scroll when I drag the team I am moving to the top...but it doesn't.

    Thank Nik,

    What I'm saying is that that process does not work for me and I suspect it is because I have a long list of teams. My list of teams is multiple pages. I want to move a team from the bottom to the top. MS Teams lets me drag it to the top of the the current page, but it does not let me drag it to the top of the multipage list. As well for some reason it won't let me leap frog it. If I move the team to the top of the last page. Then I scroll the page up so that the recently moved team is at the bottom of a new page. Then I try to drag that team again....and it warps me back to the bottom of my teams list.

    Hi Jason,

    I have performed some tests with more than 30 teams in my environment and found that to rearrange Teams using dragging option is not feasible.

    However, as a workaround, you could look for any specific Team using the search option:

    Go to Teams > Click on Great icon(Next to 'Join or create team' link) at the bottom of screen > "Manage teams" > Search teams

    Given the situation, If you have any suggestion/improvement on this, please send your feedback to Microsoft product group by submitting your suggestion to Microsoft Teams UserVoice here:

    Hi Jason,

    I'm Nik, an independent advisor here to assist you with this.

    As of now, MS Teams allows to manually reorder the Team.

    For more, see https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/reor...

    It is not possible to rearrange the Team list with predefined sorting order.

    I see a UserVoice where several users have requested this feature that still in discussion:
