Given that we have just enabled blocks on Glow Blogs I am glad classic will continue to be supported. I am still on classic here too.
continuing to support the plugin through 2022 is the right call for the project as well as the community

John, that is good news.
One of the interesting aspects to having two sites is running two different setups. I still use the Classic Editor Plugin for my Collect blog and have started tinkering with Gutenberg in my main blog. I find blocks really cumbersome and appreciate Tony Hirst’s sentiments. I actually often carve out my posts in my Collect blog and copy the contents across, but the translation to blocks can be rather frustrating. On top of that, I am not sure where it leaves Post Kinds, which I guess is the point Ton Zijlstra is trying to make.
Although I am still classic here, I have dabbled with blocks on a few other sites. I would like to like blocks but they seem more of site designers than simple bloggers. I need to have a reasonable understanding to support Glow Blog. I was interested in Ton’s idea, but would need advice on converting all my existing posts. I like blogging from a text editor and post via xml-rpc but mostly use the WordPress interface due to the affordances of Post Kinds which have given me so much. Getting back to posting from TextMate would escape any editor.
