Overall disappointed. Not only the Gutenberg, but the way situation is handled.

  • Not happy at all. Used WordPress succesfully for years now, but because the way things are going, I’m already considering to learn other CMS platforms.

    The way this Gutenberg -situation is handled, doesn’t raise reliability. Users haven’t been heard, Gutenberg doesn’t work at all, breaking sites etc. If such a bad job is made designing Gutenberg, what does it mean for the future “improvements” and WP itself.

    I’m very conserned about the security point of view too. Editor is not a small project to maintain and have a ton of code which might cause vulnerabilities.

    And now because there are vulnerabilities on previuous WordPress versions, it would be mandatory to update to WP 5. It’s like shoveling carbage down to our throats.

    I appreciate the fact that they try to take WordPress to the next level, but this wasn’t the right way to do it.

  • I tried WP 5 I really did, but Gutenberg is simply a disaster:
    – Non intuitive
    – No patience for Custom Post Types
    – Breaks 80% of my complex sites

    Just look at the amount of installs of the Classic Editor Plugin and (better) alternative plugins.

    My recommendation:
    Do NOT install the Classic Editor plugin. This keeps you under the wings of the WordPress dictators.
    Instead choose one of the alternative plugins which keep working even after 2022.
    The one I use is ‘Disable Gutenberg’
