 would like to report a possible issue related to Visual Revisions in
 WordPress 7.0.

 I updated an existing WordPress installation to WordPress 7.0, but the
 editor interface does not seem to include the new Visual Revisions
 experience. The post still shows the regular Revisions item in the
 sidebar, and the post has existing revisions, but I do not see the
 expected visual revision interface.

 Important notes:

 I am using WordPress 7.0
 This happened after upgrading an existing site (tested on 4 sites)
 I am not using the Classic Editor plugin
 I am not using the Classic Theme Editor
 Revisions are enabled and visible in the post sidebar
 On a clean WordPress 7.0 installation, the Visual Revisions interface
 appears to work correctly

 Expected result:
 After updating to WordPress 7.0, Visual Revisions should be available for
 posts.

 Actual result:
 The editor still appears to use the old/default revisions behavior, and I
 do not see the Visual Revisions UI.

 Could you please advise whether this is a known issue, or if there is
 something that needs to be migrated, enabled, or reset after the update?
