Yikes, not more blocks… Oy vey.

Updated WordPress today and suddenly when trying to update a widget I was presented with blocks… NOOOOOOO. Not again. Well, looks like I may have to install another plugin to make it go away. I tried giving block widgets a go and it was just as bad as the block editor, which I’ve literally never used longer than about an hour when testing out. Super counterintuitive and totally destroys my typical workflow. Adds 10 extra steps and a buggy experience to the mix. Hate to say it but WordPress, as much as they try to make it better, is not doing a very good job as of late. Classic widgets and post editor should always be an option, even 10 years from now. Not everyone wants “blocks” or needs blocks. If you’re writing a post, you’re writing a post. Messing with and writing in blocks is a blockhead move, period.
