I think on the settings page, select:
"go to a new page when sharing or writing a post?"
Oh dang, didn't realize that was there, thank you!!!
it's probably also possible to make a userscript that hides the background, so you can get the quick benefits of the modal editor without the clutter

Having a dark grey background with other clutter in it while I make a post is jarring and distracting. I see that the new post page still exists if I right click/open in new tab. I'd really like an option for the button just to be a plain old link again.
