I updated my site to the latest version of Wordpress. I started using the new editor but have a question.
Is there a way to add a block of content that holds all the header tags and paragraph tags? As far as I can tell I have to create a new "block" for each element, which seems weird.
I tried the HTML block but it does have any options to add elements.

Reset to default 0Yes and no.
There is a feature called "nested blocks" that will let a developer create a block that contains other blocks. This is useful for specific template-type approaches.
But, if you're asking just as a general content author if you can easily put your blocks all together, no, you cannot. They are designed to be separate. It does take some getting used to in your writing workflow. If you run into major issues with it, such as tabbing between items or something like that, the best thing to do is raise a GitHub issue/feature request.
There isn't. I'm not a fan either...there was no reason to remove this ability, imho. You could install the classic editor though to get it back though, that's what I do. It's available as a plugin.
