  Hi; it seems I can’t create a new wordpress.com blog; it keeps on saying something went wrong. I tried many times with no options or a part of the options but still it fails at some point; is this a temporary error, or are the wordpress.com sites just not free anymore?

  Hey @jrgd!

  Use the link below and, pick the first option with the .wordpress.com extension.
  https://wordpress.com/new/domains

  Heya @austinsangs thanks for your reply
  It seems the (new?) onboarding flow had a bug
  I used the one with the blue background and it worked just fine but with the the white background onboarding it never showed the option for .wordpress.com and the radio buttons made it impossible to not-select…
  It worked in the end but i think i’ve been lucky to bypass that flow :)
  Thanks for the link!
