My issue is exclusively on Excel Online. I used to be able to compress the top ribbon and hide the Formula bar to create more space for viewing the Excel sheet.

Hiding this piece of the ribbon would allow a good 1 to 2 more rows to be visible when in full-screen. Now we have to scroll down to view some of our Excel Schedule. I am not sure what changed, but something definitely has.

Perhaps, I'm not active with Excel Online. Simplified ribbon was some ago here, after that disappeared and now is returned.
You may ask your question in comments to this post Simplified Ribbon is now available in Excel for the web (microsoft.com) mentioning the author who is from Microsoft.
