So dear friends on June 1st the classic editor is going and will be replaced by the block editor. Read this post below by wordpress.com …
Note that there is a block called classic which gives you the classic editor functionality still. Or you could be brave and switch to blocks now?
Blocks are so much easier than the classic and wordpress have really improved them. You can do so much with them. WordPress.com have really enhanced their functionality and given so much more
List of some of the common items I use with the block editor
From multiple columns with no html coding. To reusable block read my post here.
Drop case lettering at the beginning of a paragraph .
You can use a background colour on your paragraph block.
You can use columns with no html , obviously they wont show up on a mobile.
Column 1

Column 3
Here are my last 3 blog posts using the blog block, rather than using the link feature. Making for a much prettier blog post. You can change what blog post is displayed.
