Hi Mark, I need to check out the move to feature. An area I always struggle with is save to sites feature in Word. It always shows a subset of the sites I have access too with no ability to browse all sites? As such I often end up saving to one drive and then uploading the document in teams?
Much of the "recent" experiences across Microsoft 365 are based on use and relevance - so it's like Dario mentions - per "follow" - and more often driven by your recent actions - like visiting or interacting with a site or the site's content. This makes it more personalized and relevant, though moves away from the "show me all my sites and I'll navigate them" approach. You should see a good list of sites, and be able to click into the library or folder you wish to save or move to. Hope that helps understand the Graph nature to "Recent"
Thanks, Mark, I have often found that the recent list doesn't include sites that I wish to be interacting with. This may be due to my varied nature of work possibly. However, what Dario mentions below re followed sites is really helpful and I have now implemented.
Barry, you need to "follow" the sites you want to save your doc to. Before creating the document, go to those sites and click "follow" in the top-right corner.
Thank you will try this, I assume this is within SharePoint. If so I assume it’s not currently in Teams today? Does seem odd that you can’t browse for alternative sites here though?

I think "browse sites" is complicated because you might have access to hundreds of them. While you would only actively follow a dozen or so... Generally speaking when you interact with SP sites (e.g. move a document to another site) the top list is made of the sites you're following. See https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/sharepoint/what-exactly-happen-when-users-follow-a-site/m-p/303401
Thank you for the clarity much appreciated
