Classic mode support timeline
- Jul 28, 2016
There are no plans to remove classic mode anytime soon. For more details, see our post on modern extensibility at http://dev.office.com/blogs/update-on-modern-document-libraries-and-extensiblity Until we roll out the framework and related patterns and practices, we havent earned the right to even talk about it. But since you asked, any change to support would be communicated long in advance.

This post dates from 2016 but it is the most relevant when searching for "SharePoint Online Classic End of Life". Has anything changed or, is there more clarity of the path moving forward as we are entering 2020?
I understand we should be working into moving to the modern experience but some things are still not there yet, and for some cases there is no path to get away from Classic, yet.
Thank you,
Ignacio

Now that we are in 2020, would like to know if things have changed. Is there a timeline for supporting classic mode.
- James BomanFeb 05, 2020Brass ContributorSince there isn't feature parity between Classic/Modern is there any reason why you would think Classic mode must be deprecated? Would like to know if you have seen a statement from Microsoft regarding deprecation.
