 * From what I can see, there are a plethora of missing options in Guttenburg. The
   lack of support for H5, the inability to embed thumbnail images into the post
   and align it, no color options for text and the list goes on.
 * I switched back to the original editor and now the majority of my Yoast SEO options
   are missing or just blank. %category% starting showing up at the beginning of
   the titles for my posts not just on the site but in Facebook and Twitter. You
   can’t save the screen options even after removing the ones you don’t want or 
   need. It just defaults back and includes everything.
 * I applaud your efforts at upgrading the options to be more like the page builders
   many folks use but it’s not ready for prime time yet.

 * Seems you are looking wrong. Because there’s support for tags from H1-H6. Just
   convert the block to a heading block and check the side menu for more options.
 * There’s support for both background color for text and text color in the side
   menu.
 * Can’t tell about thumbnail images, but you can certainly insert images into posts
   and align them to your liking.

 * Ho Kjam,
 * Did you clicked on the ‘gear’ icon in the right-top corner?
    There are additional
   block options. You can select a text color and a background color of a paragraph
   block and also select headings up to H6.
 * You can insert an image block and select an alignment for it. When you select
   the alignment before adding the following blocks it can work a bit clumsy most
   of the time.
 * I don’t know what went wrong with the Yoast options, that’s something I couldn’t
   reproduce on my test-install

 * Hey folks, it gives the option for H1 through H4 only. If I have to dig for it
   then it’s useless. Same with adding media. My format contains the featured image(
   which is fine) but also an embeddable thumbnail at the beginning of the post 
   aligned left. When I tried it this morning, the option to do that was not there.
 * You still did not say anything about the countless options that after disabled
   all show up making it a cluttered mess to scroll through the ones I use when 
   creating a post. Unlike others have mentioned, my categories and tags were still
   there but I don’t need half of the options available and prefer they be hidden.
 * I’ve since reverted back to the original editor. I’m sorry but if you’re hiding
   most of the options in a gear icon then that’s unproductive. Many people hated
   on Microsoft’s ribbon when it was introduced but I found it easy to maneuver;
   hiding everything is not the way to go.
 * I’ve used page builders for websites I’ve built for others because it’s easier
   than hand-coding or finding that perfect theme to suit their needs. For my purposes,
   I’ve switched straight-up to an AMP based theme for desktop and mobile which 
   works wonderfully. Any minor tweaks I create are done through CSS.
 * What you’re trying to do is admirable but as many folks have already stated, 
   make it an option to use one or the other and to be able to switch back without
   missing or messed up plugins. In this case, Yoast SEO is all jacked up. I’ll 
   try reinstalling it.
 * I know you folks have been working on this for a long time but it needs to be
   more straightforward and accessible when creating a post. Most of the people 
   venting here (like myself) are not building a website for the first time; we’re
   just trying to run one without having to re-learn WordPress all over again.

 * Hi,
 * I know this reply comes a bit late, but I just wanted to leave some more details
   for anyone that may pop in via searches and the likes.
 * In the case of headings, I believe the reason fro h5 and h6 being added to the
   sidebar, instead of in-line is because they are so deep that for the majority
   of users, they won’t ever be used. This means the most frequently used ones are
   exposed more prominently to be quick to access.
 * That being said, there is a shortcut for adding headings of any level, using 
   the pound/hash sign `#`. If I want a h5, I will start my block by typing `#####`(
   5x pound signs), followed by a space, this converts the block to a h5 heading
   and I can start typing my heading straight away. Hopefully this helps with your
   workflow.
