Quick note about blocks and classic editor –

I keep my sites current, so have had access to blocks for some time. Yet, I stay with the classic editor. Why?

Because, frankly, I am running a publishing site that puts up 5-10 stories a day, and I have a workflow using the classic editor and a collection of plugins that I have finally gotten most of the friction out of. And whenever I have tried to use the block editor, I simply cannot do the things I can using my current workflow.

I understand what you say about blocks, and about the advantage of them for both newbies and for people whose needs they meet. So far, that’s not true for me.

I am sure I will have to move to blocks at some point. I am sure that at some point the classic editor will not work, and neither will most of the plugins I use. At some point, I will have to start figuring out how to move my workflow and tools to a new environment. So, keep writing about blocks; I need to keep up with what’s going on in that world.

But don’t expect me to be thrilled about it. :-)
