My First Post Using the New Block Editor

The truth about WordPress block editor as portrayed by a picture.

Author: pranabaxom

Poetry is my passion. I am not a methodical writer. I have no set topics to write about. What I feel, perceive, think about, I will like to share in this blog. I open my mind to the world. Like the weather, sometimes my poems are cloudy, sometimes stormy. I always like to see sunshine streaming through the leaves of trees, so I hope I can share some of those sunshine with my readers.

I have been struggling with it too, especially the line distancing which is crucial for poetry. I hate the new changes. I wonder what do they wish to achieve through making things complicated and not even give a choice!!😡

  Actually my blogging has gone down substantially after the block editor.
  But the powers be won’t listen as this must be bringing in the advertisement dollars.
  We beggars can’t be choosers, right?

    I was charged an additional $18 this month for enrollment
    in addition to $99 they took on Aug. 3 for my plan. I’m beginning to wonder how free free Word Press is! I do love their Happiness Engineers however. But they haven’t made me happy with this mixed up editor situation. They gave me a URL where I can write in my ordinary way. But if I put it in draft then pull it back out, it is in block form! Then I’m half in and half out, I guess. I don’t know where I am. I love this “First Post Using Block.”

    This block editor is a classic case of stupidity.

    and I think only reason WP has this block editor is so that we two can agree on something 😀

In fact we can be passionately agreeable, not just amiable partners. 😀
