In Drupal 7, I could create a plain text block just by clicking the "Add Block" button. How do I do the same thing in Drupal 8?

When I click "Add Custom Block" it takes me to an empty Drupal page: Screen Shot

Also if I go to /admin/structure/block/block-content/types and add a custom block type, I get a message saying the block type was created but then I don't see it listed out anywhere. It still just says "There is no Custom block type yet."

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here.

I would love to just know if this is or is not happening for anyone else. Could someone else try creating a custom block through the UI and tell me if it works as expected?

If it is the same for everyone, then I can just assume it's meant to work that way and move on with my life. Otherwise I will need to continue looking into what I'm doing wrong...

log of the non working installation:

Type filter
Message Missing filter plugin: filter_null.
Severity Alert

+ i did a minimal install here initially ...
