 * An ill-conceived plugin, shoved to the users in an irresponsible and coercive
   way.

 * Hi Michael,
 * other comments will tell you about lack of functionalities and bad UX and even
   provide comparison with other block editors. Instead, my comment is about an 
   ill-advised release strategy.
 * I appreciate the effort of the development team to give WordPress a native block
   editor, but, regretfully, they didn’t provide users with choice and forced them
   to adopt a still unappealing product. As a result, they totally crashed on launch,
   with users’ massive negative feedback.
 * It’s easy to say that the users are not ready for the innovation, when in fact
   it’s the product not being ready. A brave choice would be now taking a step back
   and make G. available as an opt-in, while they rework it or restart the project
   from scratch.
