    So any thoughts on the new editing system they are launching, Gutenberg?

    This is a huge change when you consider that one third of all sites by some estimates are based on WordPress, and this change is not backwards compatible (!).

    I suppose it's potentially a huge money maker for WordPress developers, because you can now go to every client and tell them you will make their site compatible with this new system...

    • It sounds like a pain in the ass. They don't seem to be using common sense in rollout. It should only be enabled by default in new installs rather than on alldee-dubs
    • I think most people will instal the Classic Editor plugin as a band aid approach to not break existing sites rather than rebuilding to accommodate Gutenberg.dee-dubs
    • It's worth noting that the plugin version is getting very negative reviews from users. This could be a major turning point for WP in terms of how they decide toyuekit
    • roll this out...

    • I like the new editor. The UI is a huge improvement. The problem is the extensions like Visual Composer, and sites that depend on third party editors.Salarrue
