  I worked three hours on my post and as I was loading photos, my power flickered and my post was lost and I cannot find where it was auto saved like in the past?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  Were you using the editor at https://wordpress.com/post to write your post? If so, before you do anything else, go to https://wordpress.com/post with the same browser you were using and see if it offers to restore a post. If a restore button appears, that means a local copy was auto saved in your browser and you can recover it.

  If restoring from the browser doesn’t work, you can check for saved drafts at these locations:
  https://wordpress.com/posts/drafts
  https://wordpress.com/pages/drafts

  You can make sure your draft posts appear in that list of drafts by clicking the “Save Draft” button often while working on your posts. Please let me know if I can do anything more to help with that. :)
