I'm Loving Gutenberg!
Last Update: October 25, 2018

A while ago after WordPress made the Gutenberg plugin available, I tried it out the new editor and I hated it.

Why would WordPress make such a backward change?

About a week ago, I decided to install the plugin again because eventually I'll have to use it when WordPress 5.0 is released next month.

I guess I was overwhelmed and confused the first time because now I love it and enjoy creating rich articles with blocks.

Now I think this is such a great change and would encourage anyone who hated the Gutenberg editor the first time they tried it, to try it again.

I'm not going to make this long. I'm just expressing my new feelings about Gutenberg and hope others would embrace the change as well.

Well, I did for a while but I can't forever because change is going to happen regardless.

How does it compare to elementor?

To be honest, I tried Elementor and couldn't get into it. I probably had the same experience I had with Elementor that I had with Gutenberg at first.

So I can't really say. Maybe someone who loves using Elementor will chime in with a comparison.

Great Isabella. I hope you don't have my initial experience. The editor really is awesome and easier to use than I thought.

Yes, do try it out. It's easier to use than I initially thought and fun playing with the different editing blocks.

Ah, finally someone who loves Gutenberg. 9/10 people seem to not want to get into using this editor. I can understand because it seems overwhelming at first to understand but fun to use once you know how to use it.

Everything is a learning and yes, once you get Gutenberg- you are away :)
