Classic mode support timeline

Chris McNulty Also wondering about the timeline. This whole thread has slowly developed an ominous tone. I haven't used SharePoint since 2013 and I'm not enthused about the SharePoint for Microsoft365 modern experience with respect to how I used to be able to trick out a page. I'm working on an Intranet rewrite in my organization and they are asking for it to be in SharePoint for Microsoft365. I'd love to get a little more space on the pages instead of this Modern giant font/images design I'm looking at. Started investigating and found that I could disable this Modern design for classic pages but was told Microsoft will be phasing out the classic pages and to not bother going that route. I was curious and found this thread, like so many others, and yeah...your last comment seems to have sealed the deal. You won't give any concrete dates but you certainly are signaling the end of the classic experience. I'm a little disappointed. 

Would you say that I should not go down the classic sharepoint pages route and instead utilize a different technology to migrate my organizations intranet site to, given that the Modern pages waste so much screen real estate with unnecessary clutter? My org likes their existing barebones style of intranet layout. It's a good bit of data on one single page with no scrolling on any pages, as a rule. Modern pages, with their giant fonts and large unused whitespaces, simply won't cut it.

Are there any updates timeline for EOL for classic sites?
