Setting up a new #WordPress site for a friend, her first blog. Installing #Gutenberg right now, curious what a more or less newbie to blogging thinks about it vs. previous experiences with WP.

I bet a newbie loves it.

You don't need to be a newbie to love #gutenberg but it helps.

Well, I don't love it at all.

Has anyone tried out Micropub clients like Quill, OwnYourSwarm, OwnYourGram, Omnibear, Micropublish, or others as alternatives to Gutenberg as a posting interface? There’s a nice WordPress-based Micropub endpoint available.

I’ve been using Micropub more and more over the past couple of years and I love the convenience and simplicity for a huge variety of posting needs including custom apps like Teacup and Screech for audio/podcasting.
