WordPress 5.5 problems

I’m finding a lot of problems with WordPress 5.5.

Some of these are obviously problems with the “improvements” WordPress have made – their redesign means I have to make a lot more keystrokes getting to the same result in Newspaper (I am using 10.3.6.1). Amazingly they seem to have taken no account of productivity.

One strange one is that Preview now often won’t load without first reloading the wpadmin post page. Or is this a mismatch between Newspaper 10.3.6.1 and WordPress 5.5? Are there other problems with the two that will be fixed in next NP update?

Thanks

Hi Mark Gilbert, now if we stay and think a little, we’ll remember that WordPress is like a theme, when appear a major update there are always some problems, and after few days or weeks is released a new update to fix most of these problems.

For the moment the major problem that seem s to be reported to use is a redirect for smart list links, seems that this problem appear only with WordPress v5.5, if you use the previous version there is no problem and this is the only major problem that we are facing and our developers are working on it right now to discover the problem and try make a fix.
As for the preview, this is working correctly for me -> https://i.imgur.com/Uk0d5HF.png
