I have a lot of projects on the go, but sometimes use projects like large folders. When I have these projects favourited, they’re on my sidebar neatly, but in the team view favourited and unfavourited projects are jumbled together and can only be sorted alphabetically or by last edited.

My suggestion is letting you sort by favourites in the Team view (or even hiding them!) so you can scroll past them without problem. If I wanted quick access, I would use the sidebar.
