Re: Why I Haven’t Embraced WordPress Blocks johnjohnston.info

@johnjohnston -- i don't use wordpress very much, but recently i had a chance to try out the block editor and my reaction was that i can't imagine writing this way. it's a programmer's vision of what writers do.

@dave The block editor dosn't seem to be for writing at all! More media, layout and the like. I nearly always write in a text editor anyway.

@johnjohnston -- then you have to copy/paste right? and if you make a change, you have to change in both places.

@dave actually I often use TextMate that posts via the metaweblog api. I’d do then to tweet in WordPress but can pull posts back to TextMate too. For short posts I just use classic editor or micro.blog.
