It sounds like your account has been switched to the unified navigation which is being rolled out on WordPress.com. You can read about this here: https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/unified-navigation/

If your account has been switched and you used to access the Classic Editor through WP Admin, you’ll need to turn on the Advanced Navigation in your Account Settings -> Dashboard Appearance to access the Classic Editor: https://wordpress.com/support/account-settings/#dashboard-appearance

The Classic Editor is currently available, but in the long run, you’ll want to give the full Block Editor or the Classic Block a workout. The more you use it, the easier it will become. We have a great guide here specifically for writers and bloggers that you can find here:

this was horrific!
I thought all was lost.
I started looking for a new web site I was so angry.
I’m not interested in changing.
I see no reason to change a thing.
I like things they way they are.
if WP wants to add a few subtle extras or options, fine.
be user friendly about it
what’s here now is all I need, all I want and I don’t need any more than this.
it is text, no reason to change a thing.
think about it, when’s the last time they changed the qwerty keyborad?

thanks for your help
