 * Why is WordPress core working so hard to alienate it’s base users, developers.
   
   How many other CMS have been smarter then their users to the point they were 
   replaced. Does WordPress forgot it was a branch off a failed platform (that platform
   did not listen either) Those who forget history, repeat history. I hope someone
   listens and does not force us down Gutenberg fail. Love Classic, Gutenberg maybe
   good for some but way to clumsy and to many steps to do basic work. Please listen
   to the community. There is a reason that Gutenberg’s rating is so low. Any developer
   would tell a newbie to never use a plugin with this rating.
