Greetings!
Microsoft Teams recently rolled out the Microsoft Fluent emoji style in Teams. This change altered all emojis and reactions across the platform and made them look incredibly displeasurable and unusual. In a business environment, I would venture to say the updated emojis are unusable due to the fact that they are so silly (for lack of a better word). I have thus far been unable to revert the emojis back to the way they were before this update; however, I would like to do this, as would my team. Is there any way to revert the emojis back to the way they were before this Microsoft Fluent emoji style update?
Thanks for any insight!

I did find this item, where you can vote to have the older emojis restored: https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/idea/f1676405-fee7-ec11-a81b-000d3a03dba2
Your new emojis to me feel unprofessional and embarrassing. Please bring back the older emojis.
I can't believe this has happened - what a big step back! Emojis should be getting more expressive - not less. These emojis go back donkeys years. Not good.
Yes, please revert to old! There are so many of these emojis that are now kinda creepy and give the complete wrong impression in a work setting. Most jobs have gone remote and emojis are key to our quick responses. Please go back to something more traditional. We've all suffered enough :)
Those new emojis are far from being OK for business environment in general. Of course it depends on what business you are doing but, old, classic emojis were OK for any kind of...
Is this really what Microsoft spent time on? Sorry guys but these are too light-minded...
Please change them back to the classic ones and stop us sending strange emotional expressions...
