Looks comical, fine for school but not for business use.

Hi there, first off thanks for taking the time to provide feedback on the new Outlook on the Web experience.
You mention that you felt the new UI feels comical. Can you share more details about what changes make you feel that way?
Is it the circle/sender photos? If so, I would recommend trying to turn those off and give it another try.
Click on the Gear in the top right, and then toggle off Sender Photos.
Hope that helps!
