Accommodation for people with disabilities
Many people use the basic / classic version because of disabilities. You've just ruined my entire day. There's too much white space with the version you've forced down my throat. I can't focus as well. This message: *Those asking about going back to the old version. Unfortunately, if you do not see the "Go Back" button you cannot go back. We really hope you'll try the new experience! Thanks!" is ridiculous since it means that some people are continuing to use the old version. How do people like me who need the old interface get it back?

Switch it back or have the option for the classic SIMPLIFIED version of email! As a person with ADHD I feel completely discriminated against! This is horrible to look at and very overwhelming! I'll be switching my email providers because of this lousy so called "update"! DO BETTER & Think about those with DISABILITIES!

The new email look with the sender icons gives me MIGRAINES so I can't use my email. Pretty sure when changes affect health it's an ADA violation. I will be escalating this if I'm not given the option to make my email usable for me. This also causes my device to freeze and lag. This layout is not good for neurodivergent people so you are alienating literally an entire demographic. I was using classic for a reason as were many others. At this point with all the changes that have happened with yahoo, I wouldn't be surprised if you went bankrupt. I will be seeking out other options that don't hurt my eyes and head. I won't get headaches in the name of false progress. You're development team sucks
