    I’ve been testing Gutenberg and am very excited about the potential that it has to bring WordPress forward.

    It is getting better all the time, and I’m looking forward to it being part of WordPress core. Thanks for all the hard work!

    It’s great you are excited about the potential! Thanks for testing and leaving a review. What are you most excited about to see? Also as it’s worth asking, are there any features or even blocks you would love to see added?

    Thanks for the reply!

    I’m most excited to see content that folks build both with Gutenberg and what the community builds on top of Gutenberg’s APIs. I think it’ll make it a lot easier for users to organize and preview their posts and for developers to build interfaces that make it simple for users to control their content.

    A lot of the things that I’d had issues with (as a user) in previous versions have been resolved (yay, and thank you!).

    The two things I currently run into most frequently are:
    – Cross-block selection. Mainly, for me, this is selecting text across paragraphs while holding down shift and organizing that text. Like moving sentences around during editing: https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/3629
    – Not being able to indent with the TAB key. This is particularly an issue when creating lists (https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/4181 or 7051?). I realize that TAB is expected to move between elements in most web contexts, but within the/an editor, my expectation is that it will indent.

    I hope that helps, and thanks again!
