In reply to DJ Steve.

I get your point, and I think you are speaking in broad strokes, but the team behind block styles has been in WordPress for over 70 years combined. I have been using WordPress since 2007. Most of us are core contributed. We wrote most the original documentation for Gutenberg. We run our own WordCamps (Me personally, WordCamp Orlando since 09) and help with Meetup all over the world. We run Wapu.us and give back well over 10% of our time to core.

We(the people behind blocks styles) are well known but the brand Block Styles is new.

I know the Block Styles site is a little weak, but we did not expect it to be shared out yet really. We will work on the trust factor a bit.

Lastly, I posted a different comment about the pricing. The plugin itself is only $39. The $69 is for the full membership, extra plugins like dynamic content and a block pattern manager, plus a FSE theme. Along with added design assets constantly being added.

Thanks for your feedback
