I wonder how common feelings like yours are in the development community? I am not in any user groups or other WP-related forums and such, but I’m kind of surprised at how radical a departure gutenberg is. I feel like there’s plenty of folks that will need to jump up their skills AND apparently learn React just to start working with gutenberg. It seems incredibly misguided, and I’m really hoping automattic doesn’t just drop the “classic” editor when they’ve decided everyone should be in gutenberg…

I really appreciate your input, and the sites I’m thinking of are very similar – we want flexibility to piece elements together but we don’t want all sorts of random styling and such.

I’ll try the contact form and see if I hear anything back regarding the long-term viability of Flexible Content.
