Is there truly no way to turn off the new text editor?

Question

Hi there!

Previously we had the option to turn it off through labs. It has recently been forced upon me and has caused a lot of headache.

When I make cards for my work I am copying and pasting order forms from emails. I am using ctrl+shift+v to paste, which clears up a lot of the formatting issues, however it still causes a lot of spacing issues that I have to edit. The time it takes to make a card has basically doubled, and when I'm doing 100+ orders at a time that's absolutely miserable.

Is there any way to still turn this off? If not...hey Trello devs! Can you please? Thanks. :/

Not an exact solution, but it sounds like you 'copy and paste' information often from emails, a good option would be to use Email-to-Board https://support.atlassian.com/trello/docs/creating-cards-by-email/

I have looked further and see that apparently it "slows things down" to keep both. I'm not sure how just keeping the old one and no longer offering support or updating it slows things down, but okay.

If this is the case is it a bug when I copy and paste an email onto a card for it to add line breaks that weren't present in the email? If so I would gladly report it as a bug.
