Seriously, what a mess. Widgets changed up a lot between the two versions and rather than TRY to keep existing footer settings, WordPress just decided to make those widgets inactive. No problem if you can find the inactive widgets and copy them to new blocks or the template, but no… you suddenly see this “Editor (beta)” option instead. Something that had been a consistent part of the appearance options is just nowhere to be found. I’m glad I’m doing this as a side project.
