Most annoying plugin ever
The plugin begs for a review and when clicked to go away it keeps returning. The popup for a review is so annoying. Once is enough, not continually tho.

Perfect
This is very light weight and perfect plugin to remove Gutenberg and restore the old classic editor. Once update the WordPress, it was like headache to manage composer and other things. Thanks to the developer to resolve my issue. :)
