I know many people who use GMail's HTML view. Not only will they be confused but will be unhappy.

"You can display Gmail on your browser in Basic HTML view until January 2024. After this date, Gmail will automatically switch to Standard view".

support.google.com/mail/answer

Bookmark this URL to go to basic HTML view.

mail.google.com/mail/u/0/h/

It should still work but doing so will not provide the option to set the mode as the default anymore.

@ppatel I think we should advocate for improvements to the standard view, rather than insisting on continuing to use a separate front-end that presumably gets much less attention from the developers. I mean, we generally consider separate accessible or text-only websites a bad idea.

@matt @ppatel Good point, but the likely outcome is there won't be improvements to the standard view before the other one is removed. I hope I'm wrong about this. I personally use an email client but I know a lot of people use webmail these days.

@modulux @matt There's absolutely no way that Google can make some of the major usability fixes needed in time. We'll have to document the issues most certainly. Getting them to fix all of those will take time.
