Great features, but adds too much weight to the page load
-
I have mixed feelings about Gutenberg. While it offers great flexibility for layout design, my biggest concern is the performance impact. As a developer focused on Core Web Vitals, I find this plugin very heavy. It injects a lot of extra CSS and DOM nodes into the frontend, which significantly increases the page load time.
For news portals and content-heavy sites where speed is critical, the Classic Editor still performs much better. I hope the team focuses on reducing the code bloat in future updates.
