Its because you’re using a WordPress.com site! If you purchase your own domain via a service provider like Godaddy and install WordPress.org you’ll have access to all the plugins you would like!
Yeah I I know it sucks! WordPress is still probably the best thing we have to run your own site easily! Wix, webflow and Squarespace are trying but they’re nowhere close!
I do also like using ghost to run a site because it’s smooth integration with medium! But yeah we’re stuck with WP for now

hey I have my own domain, but it's mapped with wordpress.com as I did not know that I can link it with Wordpress.org :( Goddammit, should have asked before doing anything from someone
I'm sure you're not the first or the last person who started a blog with WordPress and got caught in the trap, I guess that's how they make their money. I know if you don't pay they normally stuff your blog with ads that you get no money from and it lives on a WordPress subdomain
So they are indeed money-hungry bitchess. Let's hope for brighter future
