  I hate this new ‘block editor’. Is there any way I can go back to using the ‘old-fashioned’ WordPress Classic Editor? (I don’t want to use the ‘Classic Block’ either because I write in html.

  Thank you for your time.

  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/

  For more details, please see https://wordpress.com/blog/2020/08/13/the-classic-editing-experience-is-moving-not-leaving/

  We do recommend the new editor though, and we have some extensive documentation available at https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/
