  I really hate the new user dashboard. The screen is oversimplified and hides the tools I want to get to so that I have to search and click a lot.. I know I can select WP Admin to get back to the old interface, but depending on what I click next, it ends up defaulting to the new.

  Hi,

  When I log in, it always defaults to the WP Admin dashboard, on any of my sites, in multiple accounts. Others, using the same login pages: https://wordpress.com/wp-login.php, or https://whatzatcalledagain.wordpress.com/wp-login.php, say they go to the new interface after logging in. I’m not sure what factor or factors are resulting in the different results. Perhaps it has to do with when the account was created. Just a guess.
