What does Gutenberg change in WordPress
The sole purpose of the Gutenberg editor is to provide an alternative to the current open text editor, not to mention the difficult-to-remember shortcodes, with an agile and visual user interface (UI). So, unlike the current WordPress editor, you don’t have to:
Import images, multimedia and approved files from the media library or add HTML shortcodes;
Copy and paste links for embeds;
Write shortcodes for specialized assets of different plugins;
Create featured images to be added at the top of a post or page;
In short, Gutenberg doesn’t change how WordPress functions. It does, however, change the way website owners (or creators) interact with it. Instead of a whole lot of shortcodes and meta boxes, you will be using simple blocks.
There are three responses to a piece of design – yes, no, and WOW! Wow is the one to aim for.

The major downside is that, when travelling across borders and checkpoints, the journey will be disrupted for inspections. You will be expected to get off from the public bus twice and queue in very long lines (during peak period) for immigration clearance.
Besides that, you’ll also be asked to bring any bags that you have with you, when you get on and off the public bus. Moreover, you may need to spend 30 minutes to 2 hours to get your passport stamp but depend on the number of people across the Singapore-Malaysia border of the day.
