Hi Pete! You're definitely not alone. This post is written from the standpoint of a developer, not so much for a blogger that doesn't touch the code on their site.

Gutenberg IS a major change to the editing interface, but for your use, I'm guessing the biggest barrier is just going to be finding where the settings have moved around and learning about the new capabilities you'll have.

Our team wrote a free Guide to Gutenberg ebook you might find helpful. If nothing else, takea few minutes to skim chapters one & two - those give a very clear overview of what the block editor is and how it differs from the classic editor.

The rest of the book digs into more detail on preparing your site and actually making the shift. We included instructions on how to NOT use Gutenberg, too :)

Hope this helps alleviate some of your fears!
