No blog posts here about any subject other than this bullshit until it’s resolved one of two ways:
1) They fix the “classic” editor and I can get back to posts
or
2) They basically give us the finger and then I kill this blog
There is no third option I can see.

Sorry, Mike, but I honestly think you’re overreacting now …killing your fantastic blog because of that bullshit? Content is king! Step over it and concentrate yourself again to what’s really worth thinking about …
You don’t understand: I CANNOT WORK WITH THE NEW FUCKING EDITOR. I tried for several days. It’s more trouble than it’s worth.
they gonna give us basically the finger…
but why killing?
just leave it, and get all the content also to another platform to continue there..
i’m still looking for adequat alternatives…
By “kill,” I don’t mean delete. I mean I’ll just say Goodbye and leave it up without updates.
Good! If they force us all this nonsense-work, they can still fill their server-spaces with bye-bye-beep-bug-users stuff. ;-)
Yep.
EDIT to add: And I’ve been through this shit before:

What about migrating to a new blogging platform?
What else is there? For free. That’s good. Until these changes, you wouldn’t have been able to budge me from WordPress. I’ve done Blogger. I’ve done Tumblr. WordPress has been The Best.
Can’t you just downgrade?
There is no downgrade. This isn’t self-hosting. It’s all free from wordpress dotcom.
awwww, I see. thats too bad. is there any possibility to export all the blog content and move it to some self-hosting wordpress blog?
I don’t want to self-host.
This is it though – why aren’t you self hosting already?! It really couldn’t be simple or cheaper to get a simple LAMP server and install WordPress on that. Then you could serve your own adds to easily pay for tiny server cost and more.
More trouble than it’s worth. This wasn’t supposed to be forever anyway.
Mike, you should at least make sure that you’re heard at higher level, and these issues are not being swept under the rug by support forum moderators, who probably have no say and don’t give a f–k.
Look for higher WordPress management, poke them on twitter or via e-mail, state your issues clearly and coherently, and post screenshots of their responses. Make sure they’re fully aware at the top.
There are plenty of others who are complaining too. We’re all being equally toyed with.
All I was saying is that it could just be the matter of complaining to the wrong people. In my mind, most user forum moderators are much like ISP customer service employees — their only task is to talk you out of switching and maybe help with a technical problem or two. They never influence any global decisions, nor do they care to.
Start an online petition, maybe!
