OKAY, So I was offered to try out the new outlook desktop today and to be honest I'm in love with the new look.
In addition to being able to now PIN important emails to the top, it also now seems to integrate with Gmail to import and save all of your contacts !!, Another feature that has been missing from outlook forever !!
Anyways, Microsoft and all their wisdom seems to remove functionality or break stuff whenever they think they're fixing and it appears now that the tasks / todo list is nowhere to be found...
MS pointed me to support article that specifically says that they do still have tasks / to-do and that it has been relocated to (MY DAY) Top right hand corner, But there is no tab that says Todo as stated in their support article... see my attached screen shot..
according to the Microsoft article there should be a tab right next to the calendar tab --
Here is the link for the MS article.--Use My Day in Outlook - Microsoft Support
I only use Gmail accounts. I do not use my Microsoft account as my default email provider ... So I'm concerned that the reason why the to-do list isn't showing up for me is because perhaps Gmail doesn't support this functionality (and or) the new outlook can't integrate with Gmail properly...
Please help.

365 Outlook (Version 2304) (Build 16327.20214) even has Task Options in the outlook options menu. The NEW outlook does not.

That does not work! !!
The article you are referencing is for office 365 and is not applicable to (New Office)
Anyways I'm going to assume that the lack of functionality and or broken options are because it's an experimental beta version and that MS is offering it to the public to try for feedback...
I have offered my feedback through the feedback option so hopefully they get these issues fixed very soon.
