In reply to Antony Smith.

Yes same here. The few clients we tested Gutenberg on couldn't even get past the first action on the main screen without help. Navigating blocks was an exercise in extreme frustration for all of them. The same clients got the gist of the Elementor UI in no time flat. Even the old editor makes sense to them as limited as it is. We'd never dream of doing columnar/"block" based content with it anyway so that's why we use page builders.

Like you, our content people all hate Gutenberg too.

I also have no idea who Automattic have been testing this with but it was certainly not regular users like our clients...
