Non stop issues since installing this theme

Ok so I have migrated posts from Squarespace to WordPress and installed the newspaper theme and its a nightmare.

Finally, after making some progress and building the rough structure I get down to tidying up the posts on the site (there’s over 500).

Issues:

Format is all over the place.

Massive blank spaces that when deleted they bunch the previous sentence. Then I have to do the shift and return trick to make an acceptable paragraph space. I HAVE TO DO THIS WITH EVERY PARAGRAPH in the article because it just jumps one paragraph past the giant gaping space.

If I change the a text section to a header it takes the whole section with it making the entire paragraph a header.

If I try and paste text in it jumps to double line spacing.

If I try and remove an image there is just a gaping white space left that cannot be removed.

The bottom of every post has a non-removable huge white space.

The Post settings and featured video bars sit right across the middle of the posts in the editor.

Finally, how do I turn off the endless scroll function where it just keeps displaying more articles. I just want 1 post per page thanks.

Honestly, this theme has caused nothing but issues so I hope someone can help

I also understand that the above is so unspecific and hard to describe as its demonic and buggy the way the editor behaves.

Also if i try to bullet point something it randomly turns numerous lines above into bullet points.

When updating the post after thinking it all looks good. I click preview and boom everything is all over the place. Looks completely different.
