  I HATE your new editor! It’s unwieldy. Much of the options provided don’t work properly. For instance, you took away the justify icon and said to replace it with Ctl Alt j. Doesn’t work. I want to centre a picture. The icon is there, but it doesn’t work. Why do you make life so difficult for us? Bring back Classic Editor!

  Hi,

  You can try to access the Classic editor using this link.

  There is also a Classic block that is similar to the Classic editor.

  The classic editor is being retired.

  Here is information about how to use blocks.

  Using blocks with a little practice you may find is not as difficult as it might seem.

  Hi @auralreflections,

  The justify button has not been removed in the new editor. You can access it from the paragraph block:

  

  You can also align images when using the image block:
