I was excited when I read about Gutenberg (hope I got the spelling right) before its release. Now I have tested it and my excitement has gone from 100 to zero, literally.

I just felt something was off about it. I later discovered what that thing was: the Classic editor is more streamlined, natural and intuitive.

What will take you few steps to achieve in Classic Editor takes more steps to accomplish with Gutenberg.

It was like fighting against nature, for me.

My advice to Matt and his amazing squad: Retain Classic Editor as a core, not make it a legacy plugin. Then build Gutenberg to compete with the likes of Visual Composer, Gantry 5, and other page builders. Or wasn't that the idea?
