  Hi.
  I see there’s no way for me to go back to the classic editor. I’m a free user, I have no paid plan. But I must say, the current ‘modern’ editor is… I cannot find words to express how awful it is… how frustrating, how… awful! It’s just awful!, it’s… unacceptable. I know you must’ve meant good, trying to modernize, but it’s just… AWFUL, FOR UCKS SAKE!!!

  Thank you for taking the time to read.

  Hi there,

  We have retired the classic editor on WordPress.com. Instead we recommend the classic block, which is a block you can add to “insert” the classic editor inside of the newer block editor, and has the familiar formatting tools you are used to: https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/classic-block/

  We also have tips for making the move from the classic editor to blocks, which is where we will be releasing new features as they are added https://wordpress.com/support/switching-from-the-classic-to-the-block-editor/

  Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.
