You can still use Source Mode. That will be staying with us forever. To get there you click the drop-arrow next to EDIT (either before or after opening the Editing Pane), select "Classic Editor" then "Source" at the middle top.

Or set Source as your personal default by deselecting "User Visual Editor where available" on your personal Preferences/Editting page.

My pref is to use Source as default, but I'll need to play with VE for a bit so I can help my various peeps with probs.
