<blockquote>
Does one thing: disables the Widget Block Editor feature.
</blockquote>
Activate this plugin to disable the Widget Block Editor functionality (added in WP version 5.8). To re-enable the widget block editor at any time, simply deactivate the plugin.
Features
<ul>
<li>Simple to use – activate and done.</li>
<li>No permanent modifications are performed.</li>
<li>There are no configuration options to worry about.</li>
<li>Easy peasy.</li>
</ul>
Why is this useful?
WordPress 5.8 was launched on July 20, 2021, and contained some enhancements to the WordPress block editor. Among those features was an introduction to WordPress’s new Widget Block Editor.
Now, why would you want to deactivate this function in the first place? You may have script conflicts that prevent you from using the widgets due to the block editor and conflicts with other plugins.
Privacy
This plugin does not collect or store any information about the user. It does not use cookies or link to any third-party websites. Thus, this plugin has no effect on the user’s privacy.

<h3>Having Too Many Plugins Can Hurt Your Website</h3>
<ul>
<li>
Installing and activating numerous plugins on your website can affect your page load time and the performance of your site as a whole.
</li>
<li>
Plugin conflicts can result in slow-loading pages, error messages, or broken functionality. Ultimately, a plugin conflict can cause a website to crash.
</li>
<li>
Security risks. The more plugins you install, the greater the risk that you’ll download one with a security vulnerability.
</li>
<li>
Learning curves. Each plugin’s dashboard or settings interface is different and the time required to learn how to take advantage of each plugin quickly adds up. Plus, there’s often maintenance involved to ensure that each one functions properly.
</li>
</ul>
