It’s nice and easy to use, but it loads a couple of CSS files on init (two versions of blocks.style.build.css) which means it adds overhead to every page on the site, even when you’re only using the block on a single page (which is probably how most people use this particular block). I try to avoid plugins that do that, because if every plugin I installed did that, it would bog down my site significantly. If they fix that, I’ll update my review to 5 stars.

Easy to set-up and use. I used it on two sites. I did have some minor problems with it, but the support team did a great (and fast) job fixing my issues. They even updated to plug-in so the issues wouldn’t be a problem in the future. So I’d recommend it for sure.

One of the main advantage comparing to other similar extensions is the creation and the edition of the timeline directly in the Gutenberg editon. Design is great too and can be edit easily with some additional CSS.
