New Editor – Hate It and Want to Go Back To Classic
-
I absolutely hate the new editor. It makes my writing take so much longer and it’s so irritating trying to find what I need and make it work the way it should.
I read that I can go back to Classic Editor, however I am unable to install the Classic Editor plug in because my account is free. That seems ridiculous. Is there no other way to revert back to an editor that is not so frustrating?

You can still switch to the classic editor when writing/editing posts/pages in your site’s Dashboard: https://wordpress.com/support/dashboard/
With that said, we do recommend the new editor though, and 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/
