I hate blocks and now WP
-
I do not want to use blocks. I hate them. I hate the entire concept.
I use WP exclusively BECAUSE it is simple and doesn’t make things too hard. Now you’ve gone and ruined it. I cannot figure out how to adjust alignment which is one of the easiest things to do because of this change.
I work. I have a busy life. I do not have time to relearn your site because some jerk thought ‘Ooh, blocks!’ and now I’m stuck trying to work with w [profanity removed] idea that does nothing but make blogging more stressful and time consuming.
I’ll be moving to a different site because between the constantly begging me for money and the blocks, you’ve become worthless to me.

Also, when you have “Contact Us” in big letters, people assume you mean that they will in some way be able to get in touch with a person. I got sent to forums because your “Contact US” is apparently a bot and not something that messages you.
Did WP get sold to someone insane or do they just hate their users now? Because honestly, this type of “customer service” is what I expect from a cable company not the WordPress I’ve used and loved for years.
This type of suckage will have me making sure to dissuade people from using your site and I’ve been so happy in the past to steer people to WP because it is user friendly. Screwed us all over on that one.

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!
I cannot figure out how to adjust alignment which is one of the easiest things to do because of this change.
You can adjust alignment in the paragraph block following this guide: https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/paragraph-block/#block-toolbar
Or, if you meant images, following this guide: https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/image-block/#aligning-images
I got sent to forums because your “Contact US” is apparently a bot and not something that messages you.
You were sent to the forums because you do not have a paid plan with us. We offer email and live chat support for customers with our paid plans: https://wordpress.com/pricing/
Did WP get sold to someone
No, we have never changed ownership.
