We have tips for transitioning from the classic editor to blocks https://wordpress.com/support/switching-from-the-classic-to-the-block-editor/ and FAQs: https://wordpress.com/support/replacing-the-older-wordpress-com-editor-with-the-wordpress-block-editor/#frequently-asked-questions
And, if you really want to use something like the classic editor, we recommend sticking with the classic block: https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/classic-block/
We also have some extensive documentation available at https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/
If you have any feedback on the new editor, we’re always looking for ways to improve it, so please let us know!

No, Macmanx. I don´t wanna use the blocks editor. I want to use the original classic editor. Is it possible?
I already learned how to use the blocks editor and I hated it. It´s not practical and this is not the first time WordPress change something that makes me waste time triying to figure out the new way to do something. It seems that everytime I wanna post something, I have to re-learn everything from scratch.
When I first saw this blocks editor thing it was still possible to choose between “Classic” and “Blocks” for the posts. But now There´s “only blocks”.
Sorry for saying, but this editor blocks thing makes me wonder if I should continue with my WordPress page. I love WordPress and it´s been useful to me, but I don´t think it worth all that effort and time from me as a user.

Sorry to hear that! To be clear, you can still access the classic editor:
https://wordpress.com/support/classic-editor-guide/If your navigation has recently changed, see this post too:
https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/unified-navigation/That said, the classic editor will be gone at some point. We’d like to resolve any issues you’re running into before then, so if you can provide specific feedback, it will help us and help you in the long run, too.
We have fixed all sorts of complaints and friction points since the block editor came out. So please give it a try periodically and let us know if you’re running into trouble. Screenshots and a link to an affected page, or title of a post, are always helpful, too.
