All this 'plugin' or 'site builder' has done is both sadden and anger me. For years i've built websites where the content is added through the classic editor/advanced custom fields 'flexible content block'. This 'flexible content' would offer a user options simular to what gutenberg does like 'images' or 'gallery' which could be inserted after the classic editor content. A major downside being the lack of a preview, which due to how 'limited' the options in these 'acf blocks' are - really hasn't been a issue. Gutenberg should have been ideal for this. A live preview, cleaner ui, blocks and what looked like >optional< extra options. Exept when it launched the way it functioned made it a giant headache, not worth using. I've found after more than 2 years the exact same issues we had are still present. This thing is a NIGHTMARE to scale back towards something usable for someone who isn't a "designer". I can only assume i am ignorant of some solutions, at this point i've just given up. I find the documentation is a pain to read through, unclear about so many things that seem so unnecessarily complex. I faceplanted into so many dissapointments/walls: Why can't i disable some options!! it's like welded down, i don't need my client to stretch a 100x100px image over the entire page The ui still so clunky and the lack of focus on things, you get lost while editing and i'm not even one of our clients who just wish to say "hello we sell tasty fish" [pictures of some fish]. All of this seems so overly catered to a designer or highly experienced user. How the blocks are puked out on the page, how little control i have over anything inside of them or how they're often broken from the start. The non functional preview device switch which does NOTHING for websites that use media queries, it's just a narrower container that in some cases show a broken version of a theme The creation of a simple block, I MUST be misunderstanding something?!! the documentation seems so incredibly unclear, maybe even incomplete.. i'm continuously staring at giant parchment's written by some priest from the 1400's, 100s of lines of code for just a simple new block.The obscene output and options of some blocks like the default 'gallery' block. Why allow link opening to a useless 'media file' or even worse 'source link' behind /block?!! i can't disable this either?! It's exhausting to try and develop something in this thing that tries to conform it to more specific needs or a smaller scope initially. I'm sure this thing will develop into something you can "build a website" with eventually. But this falls back on the same argument i've seen repeated so many times. A huge chunk of wordpress's users aren't going to be the designers Gutenberg seems to want them to be. Gutenberg may push towards more and more expansive sets of options and features. But as long as a developer who is used to accessing any and all the stuff wordpress outputs, isn't able to - this thing will be rejected until the end of time.

Absolutely not recommended!!!

I see most people dont like Gutenberg, they are may be form the old years, always think the world is stable and not be change. I like Gutenberg!

A horrible page builder, to avoid. Install Classic Editor plugin as an alternative, or other page builders available in the market (check its reviews to find out what users think of Gutenberg...)

Thanks to the Gutenberg my website (which includes my WEB SHOP!) is completely useless since I can't even UPDATE or SAVE changes in my widgets! Also, all the widgets are EMPTY after the latest update. I've wasted hours on researching and trying to find a solution but with no luck! I've even tried to bypass the plugin by disabling it but again with no luck! I hope developers are reading this and will find a solution ASAP!

I can't stand this editor. It is clunky, ugly, unintuitive and hard to use. My clients can't stand it either. And now, this HORRIBLE editor is part of the widgets area!!! This is the worst thing to EVER happen to WordPress and will likely be its ultimate downfall. I am already looking for alternative platforms. Sad to say, after making websites with WordPress for over 10 years... it's time to find something new. Gutenburg is the end of WP 🙁
