Hi Michael,
Here are the points I didn’t like about the editor:
– “block editing” concept in general works for site builders like SquareSpace, WiX, etc. This was the inspiration, as of my understanding.. For a more complex scenarios, these primitive blocks become nightmare, because site design in this case is dictated by theme, and trying to mess with theme using blocks ends in a broken site..
– I understand the block editor may be good for mobile usage; but I don’t really believe that anybody in sane set of mind would go and start building a website using a mobile device.
– The blocks sparse design simply occupies way too much space (probably because of mobile), not leaving anything for the content..
– keyboard support is quite poor.
– user interface when most of blocks types are hidden, and you have to look for them.
– many extensions and themes that provide plug-ins for the classic editor are broken.
I would really appreciated if you provided this editor as a (non-default) option. But forcing all existing users to this hipster’s toy.. Well, I can’t support that.
Kind regards
Nikolay
