Can I remove Modern Comments and revert back?
Send feedback to Microsoft to let them know what you think about the so-called modern comments; for instructions, see https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/how-do-i-give-feedback-on-microsoft-office-2b102d44-b43f-4dd2-9ff4-23cf144cfb11.
Microsoft's rationale about "posting" is mentioned in the support article at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/using-modern-comments-in-word-edc6ae71-0a2d-49fe-8faa-986f1e48136a (which you may have seen already).
Finally, you should see an option to temporarily revert to the previous, more user-friendly interface at File > Options > General. Clear the check box next to "Enable modern comments."
Lenka_Kerumova Isn't that such good news. My Word actually reverted back a few days ago without any warning, so I'm not quite sure whether I need to keep an eye out for it being changed back at some point...
It depends on which Channel you are on, but from what I've read so far, I don't think you need to worry about it.

Hallelujah! I also have "classic" comments back, without doing anything... somebody at Microsoft listened!!!😀
