The original “Press It” was removed from WordPress 2.5 and a new “Press This” added in 2.6. It existed pretty much unchanged until WordPress 4.2, which completely refreshed Press This. In WordPress 4.9, Press This was spun out to a “canonical plugin” — an official plugin from WordPress.org so sites who wanted to use it could, but streamline more niche functionality out of Core. This was previously done with the Importers. In version 2.0, Press This was modernized to use the Gutenberg block editor, bringing it in line with the modern WordPress editing experience while maintaining backward compatibility with existing installations.
