Hi All,

Microsoft is introducing a reimagined SharePoint experience that simplifies how users discover knowledge, publish content, and build solutions.

This update delivers an intuitive design, a streamlined information architecture, and foundational support for future AI‑assisted creation scenarios in SharePoint Online

To have this new SharePoint experience we need to enable the New SharePoint experience in admin center.
